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 investigate the combination effect of hTERT antisense oligonucleotide "Cantide" and three chemotherapeutic drugs (cisplatin, 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) and adriamycin (ADM)) on inhibiting the proliferation of HepG2, BGC and A549 cell lines in vitro, and to investigate the efficacy of Cantide used in combination with cisplatin (DDP) in vivo.

methodsCantide was transfected into these tumor cells by Lipofectin, and cell growth activity was calculated by microcytotoxicity assay. In vivo study, cells of HepG2 were implanted in Balb/c nude mice for 4 d. Then Cantide, DDP and Cantide+DDP were given intraperitoneally for 24 d respectively. The body weights of the tumor-bearing animals and their tumor mass were measured later to assess the effect of combination therapy in the nude mice. To evaluate the interaction of Cantide and these chemotherapeutic drugs, SAS software and Jin Zhengjun method were used.

resultsCombination treatments with 0.1 micromol/L Cantide reduced the IC50 of DDP, 5-FU and ADM from 1.07, 4.15 and 0.29 microg/mL to 0.25, 1.52 and 0.12 microg/mL respectively. The inhibition ability of DDP, 5-FU and ADM respectively in combination with Cantide in these tumor cells was higher than that of these drugs alone (P<0.0001). And synergism (Q > or = 1.15) was observed at the lower concentration of DDP (< or = 1 microg/mL), 5-FU (< or = 10 microg/mL) and ADM (< or = 0.1 microg/mL) with combination of Cantide. In vivo, combination treatment with Cantide and DDP produced the greater growth inhibition of human liver carcinoma cells HepG2 in nude mice (0.65+/-0.19 g tumor) compared with that when only one of these drugs was used (Cantide group: 1.05+/-0.16 g tumor, P = 0.0009<0.001; DDP group: 1.13+/-0.09 g tumor, P = 0.0001<0.001).

conclusionThese findings indicate that Cantide may enhance therapeutic effectiveness of chemotherapeutic drugs over a wide range of tumor cells in vitro, and the combination use of Cantide and DDP can produce much higher inhibition rates, as compared with when either of these drugs was used only in vivo.
