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

backgroundInhibition of the programmed death ligand 1, programmed death 1 pathway has been successfully used for treatment of multiple advanced adult cancers. However, its use in pediatric osteosarcoma is still in its infancy. In this study, we investigated programmed death ligand 1 and other checkpoint molecules' expression to determine the potential usefulness as targets for drug therapy.

methodsWe incubated human wild-type osteosarcoma cells with incremental concentrations of doxorubicin to create a doxorubicin-resistant cell line. Matrigel

resultsA doxorubicin-resistant cell line was successfully created and was significantly more invasive than wild-type cells (0.47 vs 0.07,

conclusionDoxorubicin-resistant osteosarcoma seems to express higher programmed death ligand 1 than nonresistant wild-type cells. Benchmarking checkpoint molecules may provide the basis for future studies that elucidate pathways of drug resistance and tumor metastasis, biomarkers for cancer prognosis or recurrence, and future targets for directed drug therapy.
