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

Tumor angiogenesis pathways have been identified as important therapeutic targets in non-small cell lung cancer. However, no biomarkers have been described as predictors of response to antiangiogenic therapy in these patients. In this study, plasma levels of VEGF, bFGF, E-selectin, and S-ICAM and gene expression profiles of peripheral blood mononuclear cells from non-small cell lung cancer patients treated with chemotherapy plus bevacizumab were analyzed before and after treatment. Values were correlated with clinicopathological characteristics and treatment response. Plasma factor levels were measured using commercially available ELISA kits. The TaqMan(®) human angiogenesis array was used to investigate the effect of treatment on gene expression profiles. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes and Gene Ontology enrichment analysis was performed for differentially expressed genes using WEB-based GEne SeT AnaLysis Toolkit. Our results suggest a benefit for patients with increased plasma levels of VEGF, E-selectin, and S-ICAM in the course of bevacizumab treatment. Also, we identified differentially expressed genes between paired blood samples from patients before and after treatment, and significantly perturbed pathways were predicted. These changes in gene expression and levels of plasma factors could be used to assess the effectiveness of antiangiogenic therapy, in addition to standard clinical and radiological evaluations.
