A proteinase inhibitor decreases tumor growth in a laparoscopic rat model.
Article in Surgical endoscopy, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
backgroundThe balance between proteolysis and protease inhibition in the formation and breakdown processes of the extracellular matrix plays a major role in tumor cell invasion. An understanding of this relationship gave rise to the therapeutic concept of lowering tumor cell invasion by inhibiting protease activity. Phosphoramidon is an unspecific proteinase inhibitor. This experimental study investigated the effect of intraperitoneal phosphoramidon administration on tumor growth in a laparoscopic rat model.
methodsIn the first phase of the study, we investigated the influence of phosphoramidon on tumor cell invasion in a collagen matrix gel chamber in vitro. In a second experiment, a suspension of colon carcinoma cells (CC531) was introduced into the peritoneal cavity of male WAG rats. Prior to laparoscopy (at 6 mmHg for 20 min), the animals were randomized to two groups. At the start of laparoscopy, the test substance was applied intraperitoneally (group 1: controls, 1 ml 0.9% NaCl; group 2: 250 mg phosphoramidon in 1 ml 0.9% NaCl). Three weeks after the injection of tumor cells, the animals were autopsied and the tumor mass determined.
resultsIn comparison with the control group (tumor weight 7.42 +/- 1.01 g), intraperitoneal tumor growth in the experimental group was significantly (p < 0.001) reduced by the application of phosphoramidon (tumor weight, 3.22 +/- 1.06 g). Phosphoramidon also significantly (p < 0.05) reduced tumor cell invasion through the matrix gel.
conclusionThe proteinase inhibitor phosphoramidon reduced tumor cell invasion in vitro and tumor cell growth in vivo in this laparoscopic rat model.
