Caveolin-1 Expression Together with VEGF can be a Predictor for Lung Metastasis and Poor Prognosis in Osteosarcoma.

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
Caveolin-1, the major protein component of caveolae, plays vital functions in tumorigenesis and metastasis. Previous evidence demonstrated the positive role of Caveolin-1 in the regulation of endothelial cell differentiation and the involvement of Caveolin-1 in vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) mediated angiogenesis. The correlation of Caveolin-1 expression and angiogenesis is not yet elucidated in osteosarcoma. This study aimed to investigate the expression levels of Caveolin-1 and VEGF in osteosarcoma and their associations with clinicopathological data. This study included 66 formalin-fixed and paraffin embedded osteosarcoma tissue samples. The expression levels of Caveolin-1 and VEGF were assessed by immunohistochemistry. Then associations with clinicopathological variables and the correlation between both markers were evaluated statistically. We also investigated the expression of Caveolin-1 and VEGF values in gene microarrays of osteosarcoma patients and cell lines by using GEO data sets on https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. Caveolin-1 and VEGF were expressed in 19.6% and 77.3%, respectively. Caveolin-1 expression was associated positively with osteoblastic histological subtype (P < 0.0001). VEGF expression showed positive association with patient age, histological grade and clinical stage (P = 0.031, P = 0.024 and P < 0.001; respectively). An inverse correlation between Caveolin-1 and VEGF expressions in osteosarcoma was found (r = 0.2 P = 0.04). In silico analysis of Caveolin-1 and VEGF expression supported our results. Our results suggest that Caveolin-1 may act as a tumor suppressor in osteosarcoma. Down-regulation of Caveolin-1 can be used as an indicator for poor prognosis in osteosarcoma patients. Meanwhile, overexpression of VEGF is a predictor of pulmonary metastasis and poor prognosis.
