Immunohistochemical characterization of lymphangiogenesis-related biomarkers in primary and recurrent gliomas: A STROBE compliant article.
Observational study in Medicine, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Glial tumors constitute the majority of primary intracranial brain tumors. The expression of specific markers of lymphangiogenesis in gliomas still remains unclear.A total of 40 surgical specimens from 20 patients with recurrent gliomas were included in the study. The expression of D2-40, vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF)-C, VEGF-D, and VEGF receptor-3 (VEGR-3) was detected by immunohistochemistry (IHC). The clinicopathologic data (p53 and Ki67) were also collected and analyzed.At relapse malignant transformation rate was 65% (13/20 cases). D2-40, VEGF-C, VEGF-D, and VEGFR-3 were expressed in 20%, 30%, 60%, and 20% of primary and 45%, 30%, 75%, and 35% of recurrent glioma tumors (P < .01, P = 1.00, P = .03, P = .03). In 13 cases with increased malignancy grade, the expression of Ki67 and p53 were higher at relapse compared with the primary tumors (P = .001, P = .045). Multivariate survival analysis showed VEGF-D was an independent prognostic factor for malignant transformation (HR = 0.376, P = .045).Glioma is easy to relapse with tumor progression. VEGF-D was an independent prognostic factor for malignant transformation.
