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

backgroundAs angiogenesis is one of the key steps in tumor growth, invasion, and metastasis, antiangiogenic therapy is supposed to be an attractive approach for antitumor treatment. We investigated the cytotoxic, anti-adhesive, and anti-invasive effects of angiostatin in vitro and on intraperitoneal tumor growth in a laparoscopic rat model of peritoneal carcinomatosis using CC531 colon adenocarcinoma cells.

methodsThe in vitro adhesion and cytotoxicity assays were performed with microtiter plates, and the invasion assay with Transwell dual chambers. Normal saline was used as control. In in vivo experiments, CC531 adenocarcinoma cells were intraperitoneally given to Wistar Albino Glaxo rats after the establishment of a pneumoperitoneum. The animals received angiostatin in different doses intraperitoneally, and in some, angiostatin was additionally administered subcutaneously. Saline was used as control. After 21 days, the animals were euthanized to determine the intra-abdominal tumor weight.

resultsIn in vitro experiments, there was no effect of angiostatin on the viability of tumor cells in the cytotoxicity assay, but there was a significant inhibition of tumor cell adhesion and invasion (p<0.05 and p<0.01) in all angiostatin concentrations. In in vivo experiments, an intraperitoneal application of 20 microg angiostatin, but not 10 microg, significantly (p<0.005) decreased the intraperitoneal tumor weight compared with controls. This effect was most pronounced after the combined intraperitoneal and subcutaneous applications.

conclusionAngiostatin given intraperitoneally at a dose of 20 microg alone or in combination with subcutaneous application significantly diminishes intraperitoneal tumor growth in rats undergoing laparoscopy. This may offer additional therapeutic options for patients undergoing laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer.
