Review in OncoTargets and therapy, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 28 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Angiogenesis plays an essential role in the development of most solid tumors by delivering nutrients and oxygen to the tumor. Therefore, anti-angiogenic therapy, particularly anti-VEGF and anti-VEGF receptor (VEGFR) therapy, has been a popular strategy to treat cancer. However, anti-angiogenic therapy does not significantly improve patients' outcomes when used alone because the cutdown of the vessels transforms tumor cells to a hypoxia-tolerant phenotype. While combining anti-angiogenic therapy with other therapies, including chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and anti-epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) therapy, has a promising efficacy due to the vessel normalization effect induced by anti-angiogenic agents. Here, we review the characteristics of tumor angiogenesis, the mechanisms, clinical applications, and prospects of combining anti-angiogenic therapy with other therapies in the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer.
