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

Antiangiogenic therapy, such as bevacizumab (BEV), has improved progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) in high-risk patients with epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC) according to several clinical trials. Clinically, no reliable molecular biomarker is available to predict the treatment response to antiangiogenic therapy. Immune-related proteins can indirectly contribute to angiogenesis by regulating stromal cells in the tumor microenvironment. This study was performed to search biomarkers for prediction of the BEV treatment response in EOC patients. We conducted a hospital-based retrospective study from March 2013 to May 2020. Tissues from 78 Taiwanese patients who were newly diagnosed with EOC and peritoneal serous papillary carcinoma (PSPC) and received BEV therapy were collected. We used immunohistochemistry (IHC) staining and analyzed the expression of these putative biomarkers (complement component 3 (C3), complement component 5 (C5), and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2)) based on the staining area and intensity of the color reaction to predict BEV efficacy in EOC patients. The immunostaining scores of AIM2 were significantly higher in the BEV-resistant group (RG) than in the BEV-sensitive group (SG) (355.5 vs. 297.1,
