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

Neuroblastomas remain a disproportionately morbid and mortal pediatric cancer. Representing 8% of all childhood cancer diagnoses, it still is the cause of 14% of cancer-related deaths in children despite the use of aggressive multimodal treatments with significant long-term sequelae. The development of targeted therapies for neuroblastoma has been and will continue to be the optimal approach to improve durable long-term survival in these patients while reducing the consequences of treatment. Here, I review the history of the development of targeted therapies for the treatment of neuroblastoma. I discuss the history of therapies that have been integrated into current treatment regimens, including isotretinoin, anti-GD2 antibodies and eflornithine. I review the history of candidate biologic targets in this malignancy as well as ongoing and future efforts to improve outcomes.
