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.

Abstract

aimApatinib, a specific tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that targets mainly vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) as well as Ret, c-Kit and c-Src, has been assessed in patients with advanced osteosarcoma (phase II), the primary report of which has been published in PMID 30559126. This sub-study explored the potential signs of Adverse Events (AEs) for apatinib-treated osteosarcoma.

methodsParticipants with advanced osteosarcoma progressing upon chemotherapy received apatinib until disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Toxicities, progression-free survival (PFS), and clinical benefit rate (CBR) following treatment were evaluated.

resultsOf the 41 patients recruited to the study, 37 received treatment and constituted the safety population. At data cut-off (December 30, 2017), median follow-up for safety was 7.37 (IQR, 6.33-11.07) months. The most common grade 3-4 AEs were pneumothorax (16.22%), wound dehiscence (10.81%), proteinuria (8.11%), diarrhea (8.11%), and skin reaction (8.11%). Only hypertension was an independent predictive factor for both PFS (hazard ratio [HR], 0.44;

conclusionThe results of this study suggest that anorexia, hypertension, pneumothorax, and hypothyroidism might be markers for a favorable clinical outcome following apatinib-treated refractory osteosarcoma.
