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

Aberrant activation of proangiogenic signaling pathways, particularly the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) axis, drives neovascularization and tumor progression in colorectal cancer (CRC). Bevacizumab targets VEGF-A-mediated angiogenesis, but the lack of validated predictive biomarkers limits personalized treatment. In this prospective study, we evaluated a panel of circulating angiogenic biomarkers combined with clinical parameters, using mathematical models to predict survival in metastatic CRC patients treated with bevacizumab and chemotherapy. Low VEGF-A and VEGF-D levels, together with high bFGF, were associated with improved overall survival (OS). A logistic regression model incorporating these biomarkers, regional lymph node invasion, and primary tumor resection status showed significant prognostic accuracy (
