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

The molecular cargo of tumor-cell-derived exosomes (TEX) mimics that of parental tumor cells. Thus, TEX could potentially serve as noninvasive biomarkers of cancer progression. However, separation of TEX from non-TEX in patients' plasma requires tumor antigen-specific detection reagents. CD44v3 has been of interest as a potential biomarker of disease progression in HNSCC, because its overexpression in tumor cells associates with poor outcome. Here, CD44v3+ TEX immunocaptured from plasma of 44 HNSCC patients and 7 healthy donors (HDs) were evaluated as potential biomarkers of disease activity and stage. Exosomes were isolated from plasma of by size exclusion chromatography. Using anti-CD44v3 or anti-CD3 mAbs on beads, CD44v3+ TEX CD3(-)TEX-enriched exosomes were immunocaptured from supernatants of nonmalignant or HNSCC cell lines and from patients' plasma. On-bead flow cytometry was used for the detection of FAS-L, PD-L1, TGFF-β. CSPG4 or EGFR on exosomes. The TEX expression profiles were correlated to clinicopathological parameters. Relative florescence intensity (RFI) values for CD44v3 were higher (
