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
backgroundHybrid PET/optical imaging provides quantitative and complementary information for diagnosis of tumors. Herein, we developed a (64)Cu-labeled AlexaFluor 680-streptavidin ((AF)SAv)/biotin-based dimeric cyclic RGD peptide (RGD2) for hybrid PET/optical imaging of integrin αVβ3 expression.
methods(64)Cu-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane-N,N',N'',N'''-tetraacetic acid (DOTA)-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 was prepared by formation of a complex comprising DOTA-(AF)SAv and biotin-PEG-RGD2, followed by radiolabeling with (64)Cu. Receptor binding studies of DOTA-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 were performed using U87MG cells and (125)I-RGDyK as the radioligand, and cellular uptake studies of (64)Cu-DOTA-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 were also performed. MicroPET imaging followed by optical imaging of U87MG tumor-bearing mice was acquired after injection of the hybrid probe, and region of interest (ROI) analysis of tumors was performed. Ex vivo PET/optical imaging and biodistribution studies of the major tissues were performed after the in vivo imaging, and immunofluorescence staining of the tumor tissue sections was carried out.
results(64)Cu-DOTA-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 was prepared in 52.1 ± 5.4 % radiochemical yield and with specific activity of 1.0 ± 0.1 GBq/mg. Receptor binding studies showed that DOTA-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 had higher binding affinity for integrin αVβ3 than RGD2, reflecting a possible polyvalency effect. Moreover, the hybrid probe revealed time-dependent uptake by U87MG cells. In a microPET/optical imaging study, the hybrid probe demonstrated high accumulation in tumors; ROI analysis revealed 2.7 ± 0.2 % ID/g at 1 h and 4.7 ± 0.2 % ID/g at 21 h after injection, and subsequently acquired optical images showed tumors with strong fluorescence intensity. Ex vivo PET/optical images of the major tissues confirmed the in vivo imaging data, and biodistribution studies demonstrated high and specific uptake in tumors (4.8 ± 0.1 % ID/g). Immunofluorescence staining showed the formation of new blood vessels in tumor tissues, suggesting that the tumor uptake was due to specific binding of the hybrid probe to integrin αVβ3 expressed on tumor cells.
conclusionsThese results indicate that a (64)Cu-DOTA-(AF)SAv/biotin-PEG-RGD2 is able to provide quantitative information on hybrid PET/optical imaging of integrin αVβ3 expression.
