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

introductionThe bladder cancer has some characteristics: the sixth most incident neoplasm in the United States, the majority of diagnosed cases in those 55 years of age and older, four times more common in man than women, a reduced five-year survival rate in case of metastatic disease. Despite the beneficial effects of the combination therapy and immunotherapy, the low response rate and drug resistance were reported. The main goal of this work was evaluation of the endothelial cell proliferation from urothelial carcinomas. PATIENTS, MATERIALS AND

methodsFifty-two cases of T2-T4 infiltrative bladder tumors, aged between 46 and 78 years, were investigated. Morphological, simple and cluster of differentiation 31 (CD31)∕Ki67, CD31∕smooth muscle actin (SMA) double immunostaining were performed.

resultsIn all the analyzed infiltrative bladder tumors, three types of vessels were noticed: immature, intermediate and mature. In the central part of the tumor area, the following distribution of vessel types was noticed: immature (62.25%), intermediate (35.1%), and mature vessels (2.65%). In the peripheral tumor area, the intermediate vessels increase numerically, up to 54% and the mature ones, up to 18.6%. The peritumoral area was characterized by the absence of immature vessels and the presence of intermediate and mature ones only. It was found the presence of endothelial cell nuclei stained for Ki67 only for immature and intermediate vessels, and never for mature ones.

conclusionsThe vascular patterns may contribute to a better stratification of the patient subgroups and antiangiogenic treatment algorithms.
