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

The aim of this study is to analyze the level of target molecule expression in metastatic renal cell carcinoma (RCC) to determine whether there is a correlation between molecular marker expression and clinical response. Ten patients with metastatic RCC, who received receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) targeted therapy after cytoreductive or radical nephrectomy, were included. The expression of target molecules relating to the RTK, mammalian target of rapamycin, hypoxia inducible factor, mitogen activated protein kinase, and adenosine monophosphate-activated protein kinase pathways were analyzed using real-time polymerase chain reaction and immunohistochemistry. We correlated the level of target molecule expression with clinical response, including efficacy and adverse events experience during RTK targeted therapy. All patients showed similar histological subtype and grade on pathological examination; however, the expression of RCC target molecules was very different among the patients. The expression of molecules related to the RTK pathway in RCC tissue as well as relative expression of molecules in RCC tissue compared to normal kidney tissue, were higher in patients who showed a good response to RTK targeted therapy compared to those that showed a poor response. Target molecule expression in normal kidney tissue was higher in patients who experienced high-grade adverse events than in patients who experienced low-grade events. Target molecule expression in metastatic RCC correlates with targeted therapy clinical response including efficacy and adverse events. Personalized target molecule expression profiles could be used to predict clinical response to different targeted therapies, thus helping optimization of targeted therapies for patients with metastatic RCC.
