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

The tissue-isolated tumor model permits the investigation of melatonin's influence on human tumor growth and metabolism in laboratory rats in vivo. Here we describe a unique surgical technique for implanting and growing human tumor xenografts on a vascular stalk composed of the nude rat epigastric artery and vein that provides a continuous blood supply from a single source to the tissue-isolated tumor while insuring the absence of extraneous vascular connections. A variety of human tumor types may be implanted and grown utilizing this unique model that may provide a plethora of scientific data from a single tumor examined.
