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

Human tumor xenografts established in athymic rat brains were used to determine the feasibility of intravascular delivery of tumor suppressor genes to brain tumors. Both tumor size and number were compared to characterize the effect of tumor burden on tumor transduction efficacy by a control LacZ-containing adenoviral vector. Experiments with tumors grown in vivo for either 3, 5, or 7 days demonstrated that 5-day-old tumors provided the best target for vector infection and transgene expression by this mode of administration. Intra-arterial mannitol facilitated transduction efficiency. Tumor burden did not seem to affect transduction, while tumor location appeared to be an important factor. Based on these results, intra-arterial infusion of a p53-containing adenoviral vector was carried out and resulted in significant retardation of brain tumor growth 3 days after administration. Effects at longer time points were not as significant. These findings indicate that intra-arterial administration of adenoviral vectors containing p53 is efficient and can result in changes in tumor size, but that long-term control of tumor growth may require multiple adenoviral treatments.
