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

backgroundC-X-C motif chemokine receptor 4 (CXCR4) is overexpressed in various solid cancers and can be targeted by CXCR4-directed molecular imaging. We aimed to characterize the in-vivo CXCR4 expression in patients affected with solid tumors, along with a comparison to ex-vivo findings.

methodsA total 142 patients with 23 different histologically proven solid tumors were imaged with CXCR4-directed PET/CT using [

resultsOne hundred three of 152 (67.8%) scans showed discernible uptake above blood pool (TBR > 1) in 462 lesions (52 primary tumors and 410 metastases). Median TBR was 4.4 (1.05-24.98), thereby indicating high image contrast. The highest SUV

conclusionsIn a whole-body tumor read-out, a substantial portion of prevalent solid tumors demonstrated increased and uniform [
