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

Marimastat, a matrix metalloproteinese inhibitor, was examined for the ability to prevent peritoneal dissemination of a human gastric cancer xenograft, TMK-1. Even with novel approaches such as molecular targeting of cancer chemotherapy, peritoneal dissemination of gastric cancer has little sensitivity to anticancer drugs, and it is impossible to inhibit its growth completely. Intraperitoneal injection of TMK-1 into nude mice at 5 x 10( 5) cells / body resulted in carcinomatous peritonitis that mimicked clinical cases. Continuous administration of marimastat (18 mg / kg / day) from 24 h after the tumor inoculation successfully inhibited the growth of peritoneal dissemination nodules. Combined administration of marimastat (18 mg / kg / day) and mitomycin C (MMC, 2 mg / kg) showed synergistic inhibition of growth of peritoneal dissemination, being superior to MMC alone (2 mg / kg). Although marimastat alone could not increase survival time with statistical significance, combined administration of marimastat and MMC had a survival benefit with statistical significance. The combination of marimastat and MMC increased the preventive effect on peritoneal dissemination. Marimastat seems to be a candidate for the prevention of peritoneal spread of gastric carcinoma.
