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

During tumor growth, the complex composition of vasculature is prone to dynamic changes due to mechanic and biochemical challenges. Perivascular invasion of tumor cells to co-opt existing vasculature, but also formation of de-novo vasculature and other effects on the vascular network, may lead to altered geometric vessel properties as well as changes in vascular network topology, which is defined by vascular multifurcations and connections between vessel segments. The intricate organization and heterogeneity of the vascular network can be analyzed with advanced computational methods to uncover vascular network signatures that may allow differentiating between pathological and physiological vessel regions. Herein, we present a protocol to evaluate vascular heterogeneity in whole vascular networks, using morphological and topological measures. The protocol was developed for single plane illumination microscopy images of mice brain vasculature but can be applied to any vascular network.
