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

Viruses have been engineered to replicate selectively in cancer cells, based on a number of innovative principles. Several of these viruses have entered clinical trials and have proven relatively safe, and have shown evidence of efficacy. However, further research is required to enable these agents to function systemically. This might involve attempts to suppress immune responses to virus antigens, and re-targeting of viruses to favor tumor infection and increased potency. When these barriers are overcome, oncolytic viruses could enter the mainstream of clinical oncology.
