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

Hemostatic parameters have been investigated as molecular determinants of tumor progression. To analyze the dynamics of microparticle-associated tissue factor activity (MPTF), tissue factor antigen (TF-Ag), and angiopоietin-2 (ANG-2) in cancer patients before, during, and after active treatment and to explore their potential as biomarkers for metastatic occurrence and death. Blood for the analysis of MPTF, TF-Ag, ANG-2, and conventional hemostatic tests was sampled in 111 patients with various cancers at 4 consecutive visits: before first chemotherapy cycle, after 3 courses, at the sixth course, and 3 months after chemotherapy cessation. Patients were followed up until metastatic progression/death or the end of the study. MPTF did not change during chemotherapy, but increased significantly after treatment cessation. Total TF-Ag and ANG-2 decreased throughout active treatment. Significant drop of their levels was observed 3 months post therapy cessation. Progressive disease was significantly associated with higher pre-chemotherapy TF-Ag and fibrinogen. Elevated baseline levels of fibrinogen were associated with increased risk of shortened progression free survival. Cessation of chemotherapy is associated with significant change of hemostatic parameters. Pre-chemotherapy levels of TF-Ag and fibrinogen may be informative of disease state and prognosis.
