[Treatment of the glioma microenvironment].
Review in Der Nervenarzt, 2015. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Therapeutic concepts for malignant gliomas increasingly target the genetically non-transformed tumor stroma rather than the tumor cells themselves. There are two particular compartments of the tumor stroma which are currently tackled: the vascular compartment by using antiangiogenic treatment with the aim of vascular normalization and the immune compartment with the aim of enhancing or inducing anti-tumor immunity. Although the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) A antibody bevacizumab has not been approved for the treatment of malignant glioma in European countries, there is evidence from smaller trials of biological efficacy particularly in recurrent disease and the results of a large European phase III study testing the clinical efficacy are currently expected. Immunotherapies are on the verge of entering the clinical arena with the first randomized phase III clinical trials having already been completed. In these studies, active vaccination and checkpoint inhibitors which are approved for other tumor entities are being tested. This article provides an overview on the current antiangiogenic and immunological therapies for gliomas, summarizes the results of clinical trials and discusses further developments.
