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

A diamantane derivative 1,6-Bis [4-(4-amino-3-hydroxyphenoxy) phenyl] diamantane (DPD) was found to inhibit the growth of several cancer cell lines in the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Anticancer Drug Screen system. In this study, we examined the in vitro and in vivo effects of DPD on human colon cancer cells. DPD exerted growth inhibitory activities in vitro against three human colon cancer cell lines (Colo 205, HT-29, and HCT-15). DPD-treated cells were arrested at G(0)/G(1) as analysed by flow cytometric analysis. The expression of cyclin D was decreased in DPD-treated cells. The differentiation markers of carcinoembryonic antigen and fibronectin were significantly increased in colon cancer cells after treatment with DPD. The epithelium-like brush borders on HT-29 cell surface were also demonstrated at 1 week after withdrawal from DPD treatment. The DPD-induced cell growth inhibition and differentiation were irreversible after removal of DPD. The in vivo effect of tumour growth suppression by DPD was also observed in mouse xenografts. No acute toxicity was observed after an intraperitoneal challenge of DPD in BALB/c-nude mice weekly. These results suggest that DPD appears to be a new potentially less toxic modality of cancer therapy.
