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

Orthotopic models are based on the implantation of tumor cells directly into the organ of origin, which allows interaction between the cells and the surrounding host tissues. Here, we describe a modified version of an orthotopic model that closely recapitulates the steps required for metastasis development in Ewing sarcoma: tumor cells are injected into the calf muscles of the mouse, and once the tumor reaches a certain volume, the muscles containing the tumor are surgically resected. This procedure involves a nonaggressive surgery of the muscle, which allows for the survival of the mouse during a period of time that is long enough to enable the development of distant metastases. This spreading of tumor cells to metastatic sites in other organs takes place by a physiological mechanism similar to what occurs in human Ewing sarcoma. We have adapted this protocol for the implantation of tumor fragments derived from human patients into the calf muscle of mice. This method enables the analysis of human tumor growth of human tumors in mice and the evaluation of potential therapies in a highly specific manner.
