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 primary bone malignancy. Our previous study revealed an association between the level of epidermal growth factor-containing fibulin-like extracellular matrix protein 1 (EFEMP1) and the invasion, metastasis, and poor prognosis of OS. However, the exact correlation between the serum EFEMP1 level and OS diagnosis and progression was unclear. This study is aimed at determining the value of the serum EFEMP1 level in the diagnosis and prognosis of OS. Fifty-one consecutive OS patients were prospectively registered in this study. The serum EFEMP1 levels were measured using ELISA at diagnosis, after neoadjuvant chemotherapy, and before and after surgical treatment. Sixty-nine healthy subjects in the control group, nine patients with chondrosarcoma, and 12 patients with giant cell tumor of the bone were also enrolled in this study. Surgical orthotopic implantation was used to generate a mouse OS model, and the correlation between the circulating EFEMP1 levels and tumor progression was examined. Then, OS patients had significantly higher mean serum EFEMP1 levels (7.61 ng/ml) than the control subjects (1.47 ng/ml). The serum EFEMP1 levels were correlated with the Enneking staging system (
