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

BACKGROUND &

objectiveMicro-vascular proliferation is an important histological feature of brain glioma with more vascular proliferation is present in higher grades of glioma. CD 105 is expressed in new actively proliferating and immature endothelial cells in tumor environment and appears to be capable to distinguish between malignant neo-vasculature and normal vessels.

methodsThis study was designed to evaluate the Micro-Vessel Density(MVD) in different grades of brain glioma based on CD 105 expression byImmunohistochemistry method to determine whether it can be a helpful marker for rumor grading or not.Paraffin blocks of formalin fixed samples of brain astrocyticglioma were retrieved and IHC was performed using anti-CD105 monoclonal mouse antibody.

resultsTotal number of 48cases of low and high grade astrocyticgliomas were evaluated.We noted that there was a positive correlation between MVD evaluated by CD105 and tumor grade, meaning that expression was significantly greater in tumors with higher grade (

conclusionWe concluded that MVD quantified by CD 105 has positive correlation with tumor grade. Also we think that expression of CD 105 specially in low-grade glioma can serve as a basis for selective treatment option in combination with current standard care.
