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 clinical outcome of neuroblastoma (NB) has significantly improved in the last 30 years for patients with localized disease; however, the overall survival (OS) for patients with metastasis remains poor. Apatinib, a selective inhibitor of the vascular endothelial growth factor receptor-2 (VEGFR-2) tyrosine kinase, which was discovered to be highly associated with metastasis, has been reported to exert antitumor effects in numerous types of cancer. However, the effect of apatinib in NB remains relatively unknown. The present study aimed to investigate the antitumor effects of apatinib in NB cells
