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

BACKGROUND/

aimSarcomas of the breast are extremely rare malignant tumors and comprise only 5% of all sarcomas and fewer than 1% of breast cancers. Primary osteosarcoma of the breast is histologically indistinguishable from osteosarcoma of the bone. Effective therapies of this recalcitrant disease have not yet been developed. MATERIALS AND

methodsA patient-derived xenograft (PDX) mouse model of primary osteosarcoma of the breast was established by subcutaneous implantation of the surgical specimen, along with surrounding normal tissue. Hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining was performed on paraffin-embedded histological sections of the original tumor resected from the patient and from implanted tumors that grew in nude mice.

resultsTumors grew in 46 of 51 mice implanted with the original surgical specimen. The H&E-stained slides of the mouse-grown tumor and the original patient tumor matched, both showing large areas of spindle-shaped cells, characteristic of osteosarcoma.

conclusionThe first PDX mouse model of primary breast osteosarcoma was established which will enable testing of novel therapeutics as well as basic research of osteosarcoma of the breast.
