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

Background: Ovarian cancer is one of the most aggressive malignancies of the female reproductive system, and the 5-year survival rate is lower than 45%. This study aimed to evaluate a selectively targeted adeno-associated virus (AAV) vector for ovarian cancer, and to investigate its specificity and antitumor efficacy in order to provide experimental evidence for gene therapy of ovarian cancer. Methods: The epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM)-specific binder EC1 was fused into the AAV2 capsid protein VP2 to construct an EpCAM-targeted recombinant vector (AAV2M Results: AAV2M Conclusions: AAV2M
