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

Canstatin, the non-collagenous domain of collagen type IV α-chains, belongs to a series of collagen-derived angiogenic inhibitors. In this study, the inhibitory effect of recombinant canstatin on tumour growth was investigated using a gastric cancer xenograft model. The volume and weight of tumours in mice treated with canstatin were lower than that in mice treated with PBS. Accordingly, the survival rate of these mice was significantly higher than that of mice bearing tumours treated with PBS. Moreover, valuable insight into the mechanisms mediated by canstatin was obtained.
