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

New treatment options for advanced osteosarcoma have remained limited. The platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF)/platelet-derived growth factor receptor (PDGFR) pathway plays an important role in the development and metastasis of osteosarcoma, via either direct autocrine stimulation of tumor cells, or paracrine stimulation on tumor stromal cells. It promotes angiogenesis to overcome hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment, and modulates tumor interstitial fluid pressure to control the influx and efflux of other agents. Targeting the PDGF/PDGFR pathway is a promising therapeutic method to overcome drug resistance and improve patients' outcome in osteosarcoma. Further evidence is needed to define the detailed mechanism. Results from clinical trials using PDGF/PDGFR inhibitor as a single agent were disappointing, both in osteosarcoma and soft tissue sarcoma. However, when combined with other agents, named as "add-on" strategy, a synergistic antitumor effect has been confirmed in soft tissue sarcoma, and should be attempted in osteosarcoma.
