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

Clinical data suggest that beyond-progression, the blockade of angiogenesis is associated with improved survivals in colorectal cancer. We conducted a systematic review to investigate the therapeutic effects of antiangiogenic drugs administered as later lines of treatment in patients already progressed to a previous anti-VEGF based treatment. An extensive literature search was conducted. Hazard ratios (HR) for progression (PFS) and death (OS) were extracted. An inverse-variance meta-analysis model was implemented. 6 randomized controlled trials were retrieved, including 3407 patients, treated with different antiangiogenic drugs. All of them had progressed during or after a previous line of treatment with bevacizumab. Overall, both PFS (HR=0.63,
