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

purpose of reviewFrom a physiological point of view, VEGFs (vascular endothelial growth factors) and their receptors (VEGFR) play a critical role in vascular development angiogenesis, endothelial function, and vascular tone. On the pathological side, VEGF-VEGFR signaling may induce dysregulated angiogenesis, which contributes to the growth and to the spread of tumors, being essential for neoplastic proliferation and invasion. RECENT

findingsPharmacological inhibition of VEGF-VEGFR is now a cornerstone in the treatment of many malignancies; however, treatment with VEGF inhibitors is commonly associated with an increase in blood pressure values. This side effect is strictly connected with the mechanism of action of these medications and might represent an index of therapy efficacy. The optimal management of this form of hypertension is, at present, not clear. Calcium channel blockers and renin-angiotensin system inhibitors probably represent the most appropriate classes of hypertensive dugs for the treatment of this condition; however, no conclusive data are presently available.
