Apatinib combined with temozolomide treatment for pseudoprogression in glioblastoma: A case report.
Article in Medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
rationaleGlioblastoma is the most common malignant tumor of the central nervous system, which originates from glial cells and corresponding precursors. Due to its strong invasion and rapid growth, the prognosis of patients after treatment is very poor and easy to relapse. PATIENT CONCERNS: In August 2015, a 48 years old man with a relapse of glioblastoma. DIAGNOSES: The patient was diagnosed by computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and pathological biopsy in this case report.
interventionsThe patient underwent 2 surgeries, radiotherapy, and multiple regular chemotherapy sessions over the next 6 years. Apatinib, an inhibitor of vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 2 was given to treat recurrent glioma. OUTCOMES: It was found that radiotherapy combined with temozolomide administration often increased the size of the original lesion or produced a new glioblastoma lesion. The lesion development was similar to tumor progression, which was called pseudoprogression. And it significantly prolonged the survival of this patient. LESSONS: Surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy with apatinib and temozolomide are effective to treat the patients with pseudoprogression in glioblastoma.
