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

Angiogenesis, as a core marker of cancer survival and growth, is integral to the processes of tumour growth, invasion and metastasis. In recent years, targeted angiogenesis treatment strategies have gradually become an important direction in cancer treatment. Single-cell sequencing technology can provide new insights into targeted angiogenesis by providing a deeper understanding of the heterogeneity of tumour endothelial cells and exploring the interactions between endothelial cells and surrounding cells in the tumour microenvironment. Here, we systematically review the research progress in endothelial cell pathophysiology and its endothelial‒mesenchymal transition and illustrate the heterogeneity of endothelial cells from a single-cell perspective. Finally, we examine the contributions of different cell types within the tumour microenvironment in relation to tumour angiogenesis, as well as the latest progress and strategies in targeted angiogenesis therapy, hoping to provide useful insights into the clinical application of antiangiogenic treatment. Furthermore, a summary of the present progress in the development of potential angiogenesis inhibitors and the ongoing clinical trials for combination therapies is provided. KEY POINTS: Angiogenesis plays a key role in tumour progression, invasion and metastasis, so strategies targeting angiogenesis are gradually becoming an important direction in cancer therapy. Interactions between endothelial cells and stromal cells and immune cells in the tumour microenvironment are significant in angiogenesis. The application of antiangiogenic immunotherapy and nanotechnology in antiangiogenic therapy provides a vital strategy for prolonging the survival of cancer patients.
