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

Osteosarcoma (OS) is one of the most common primary malignant tumors originating in bones. Its high malignancy typically manifests in lung metastasis leading to high mortality. Although remarkable advances in surgical resection and neoadjuvant chemotherapy have lengthened life expectancy and greatly improved the survival rate among OS patients, no further breakthroughs have been achieved. It is challenging to treat patients with chemoresistant tumors and distant metastases. Recent studies have identified a compelling set of links between hypoxia and chemotherapy failure. Here, we review the evidence supporting the positive effects of hypoxia in the tumor microenvironment (TME). In addition, certain anticancer effects of immune checkpoint inhibitors have been demonstrated in OS preclinical models. Continued long-term observation in clinical trials is required. In the present review, we discuss the mutualistic effects of the TME in OS treatment and summarize the mechanisms of immunotherapy and their interaction with TME when used to treat OS. We also suggest that immunotherapy, a new comprehensive and potential antitumor approach that stimulates an immune response to eliminate tumor cells, may represent an innovative approach for the development of a novel treatment regimen for OS patients.
