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

MET-amplified glioblastoma (GBM) is rare, accounting for approximately 2-5% of cases. However, the treatment regimens for patients with MET-amplified GBM still have not reached a unanimous consensus. Our paper describes the use of vebreltinib in a newly diagnosed glioblastoma patient harboring MET amplification. This successful case study suggests that novel targeted MET inhibitors may provide potential clinical benefits in select cases on the basis of the MET signaling pathway status.
