1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) is one of the most potently angiogenic factors which promotes generation of tumor vasculature. VEGF is usually up-regulated in multiple cancers include osteosarcoma and gliomas. To further explore the potential molecular mechanism that inhibits tumor growth induced by interference of VEGF expression, we constructed an Lv-shVEGF vector and assessed the efficiency of VEGF silencing and its influence on U2OS cells. Our data demonstrated that Lv-shVEGF has high inhibition efficiency on VEGF expression, which inhibits proliferation and promotes apoptosis of U2OS cells in vitro. Our results also indicated that inhibition of VEGF expression suppresses osteosarcoma tumor growth in vivo, VEGF inhibition reduces osteosarcoma angiogenesis. We also found that the phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and protein kinase B (AKT) activation was considerably reduced after osteosarcoma cells were treated with Lv-shVEGF. Taken together, our data demonstrated that VEGF silencing suppresses cells proliferation, promotes cells apoptosis and reduces osteosarcoma angiogenesis through inactivation of PI3K/AKT signaling pathway.
