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 development is closely related to angiogenesis, and VEGFR2 plays an important role in tumor angiogenesis. It is broadly expressed in the blood vessels, especially in the microvessels of tumor tissues. Furthermore, VEGFR2 is detected on the surface of the cell membrane in various immune cells, such as dendritic cells, macrophages, and regulatory T cells (Tregs). Tregs, which are one of the key negative regulatory factors in tumor immune microenvironments, show high-level expression of VEGFR2 which participates in the regulation of immunosuppressive function.
