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

backgroundIn experimental animal models, implantation location might influence the heterogeneity and overall development of the tumor, leading to an interpretation bias. PURPOSE: To investigate the effects of implantation location in experimental tumor model using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and pathological findings. STUDY TYPE: Prospective. SUBJECTS: Forty-five breast cancer-bearing mice underwent orthotopic (N = 15) and heterotopic (intrahepatic [N = 15] and subcutaneous [N = 15]) implantation. FIELD STRENGTH/SEQUENCE: Sequences including: T1-weighted turbo spin echo sequence, T2-weighted blade sequence, diffusion-weighted imaging, pre- and post-contrast T1 mapping, multi-echo T2 mapping at 3.0 T. ASSESSMENT: MRI was performed at 7, 14, and 21 days after implantation. Native T1, post-contrast T1, T2, and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) of tumors, the tumor volume and necrosis volume within tumor were obtained. Lymphocyte cells from H&E staining, Ki67-positive, and CD31-positive cells from immunohistochemistry were determined. STATISTICAL TESTS: One-way analysis of variance and Spearman's rank correlation were performed. P value <0.05 was considered statistically significant.

resultsThe tumor volume (intrahepatic vs. orthotopic vs. subcutaneous: 587.50 ± 77.62 mm DATA

conclusionOrthotopic and heterotopic tumors have their unique growth kinetics, necrosis volume, and vascular invasion. Non-invasive MR quantitative parameters, including ADC and post-contrast T1, may reflect vascular invasion in mice. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: 1 TECHNICAL EFFICACY: Stage 3.
