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

It is now well appreciated that the tumor microenvironment (TME) surrounding primary tumors impacts tumor growth, progression (invasion and migration), and response to therapy. Broadly speaking, the TME is composed of cells (immune cells, activated fibroblasts, adipocytes, endothelial cells), acellular extracellular matrix (ECM), and cytokines or growth factors, some of which are bound or tethered to the ECM proteins. All these compartments undergo significant changes during tumor development and progression. Changes to the ECM, in particular, can dramatically influence cancer biology. This has stimulated the development of therapies that directly reverse or prevent the structural changes in the TME ECM that facilitate cancer progression. But to do so, in a rational manner, we need to understand how structural changes to tumor ECM arise, are remodeled, and function to facilitate tumor cell invasion and migration that give rise to metastatic disease, which is the main cause of cancer-related deaths.
