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

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common bone tumor in pediatric and adolescent/young adult patients yet little is known about the microenvironment that supports this aggressive disease. We have used targeted gene expression profiling and immunohistochemistry to characterize the microenvironment of metastatic and non-metastatic OS specimens from pediatric patients exhibiting poor histologic response to chemotherapy. Our results indicate that metastatic specimens exhibit lymphocyte exclusion as T cells are confined to the periphery of the pulmonary lesions. Furthermore, our data provides evidence of vascular dysfunction in metastatic OS indicated by increased expression of
