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

aimTo evaluate the effect of reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide on the progression of human colon cancer.

methodsHuman colon carcinoma cell lines, LS174T and HCT8, were treated respectively with 10(-5), 10(-7) or 10(-9) mol x L(-1) hydrogen peroxide for 24h,and co-cultured with human endothelial cell line ECV-304. The migration of ECV-304 induced by cancer cells was calculated and the expression level of vascular endothelial growth factor in cancer cells was determined by RT-PCR analysis and ELISA. Dactinomycin of 1.5mg x L(-1) which could block transcription of cancer cells was applied to observing the effects of H(2)O(2) on transcriptional activity and the relative half-life of VEGF mRNA. Finally,to evaluate the effect of H2O2 on NF-kappaB activity in colon cancer cells, NF-kappaB in cytoplasm and nucleus of the cells were detected with FITC-tagged antibody and its presence in the nucleus(Fn) vs cytoplasm(Fc) was monitored by measuring the green fluorescence integrated over the nucleus by laser scanning cytometry(LSC).

resultsExogenouse hydrogen peroxide of low concentration increased the migration of endothelial cell induced by colon cancer cells. When cancer cells were treated with 10(-5) mol x L(-1) H2O2, the migration number of endothelial cells induced by LS174T cells was 203+/-70 and the number induced by HCT8 cells was 145+/-65. The two values were significantly higher than those treated with other concentrations of H2O2 (P<0.01). The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor in cancer cells, which could be blocked by dactinomycin, were increased to a certain degree, while the relative half-life of VEGF mRNA was not prolonged after treatment with hydrogen peroxide. The activity of NF-kappaB in colon cells rose after the cells were exposed to hydrogen peroxide for 24h. The Fn values in HCT8 cells were 91+/-13 (0 mol x L(-1) H2O2) and 149+/-40(10(-5) mol x L(-1) H2O2)(P<0.05), in LS174T cells were 127+/-35(0 mol x L(-1) H2O2) and 192+/-11(10(-5)mol x L(-1) H2O2) (P<0.05). It is similar to the case of VEGF expression in cancer cells.

conclusionHydrogen peroxide increases vascular endothelial growth factor expression in colon cancer cells, and it is likely that reactive oxygen species such as hydrogen peroxide facilitates the development of colon cancer.
