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

Novel methods of local control for sarcomas are needed. We investigated the antitumor effect of two related herpes simplex virus (HSV) mutants, NV1020 and NV1066, on human rhabdomyosracoma cells and xenografts. Cell death correlated with virus replication and apoptosis in cultured cells and tumors. Complete regression was seen in all tumors <250 mm(3) following a single injection, yet only half of tumors >250 mm(3) showed a complete response. Fractionation of the virus dose into five injection sites did not increase transduction efficiency, transgene expression, or virus production, but did yield more widespread intratumoral distribution. Despite the same total dose of virus, improved control of large tumors was seen using fractionated injections as all large tumors (500-700 mm(3)) had durable, complete regression. Our data suggest that oncolytic HSVs may be useful for local control of bulky rhabdomyosarcoma tumors and that fractionated virus administration results in a more widespread virus infection and better tumor control. Therefore, strategies to maximize intratumoral virus distribution at initial delivery should be sought.
