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

Active angiogenesis is the basic pathological feature of glioma. Tumor angiogenesis is involved in vascular endothelial cell migration to the tumor tissue and in the formation of tube-like structures. The present study aimed to investigate the role of leucine-rich repeats and immunoglobulin-like domains 2 (LRIG2) in glioma angiogenesis. Glioma (n=50) and normal brain (n=20) tissue samples were collected from patients to detect the expression of LRIG2, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), vascular endothelial growth factor A (VEGF-A), and cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31) using immunohistochemistry. In addition, the association between the expression of LRIG2 in glioma tissue and the microvessel density (MVD) was analyzed.
