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

Antitumor vaccination therapies using attenuated Salmonella typhimurium carrying plasmid DNA encoding tumor-associated antigens are currently under preclinical development. In the present study, we first established a useful method to facilitate in vivo monitoring of attenuated S. typhimurium uptake using a bioluminescent lux gene operon plasmid. Following transformation with the lux gene operon construct, mice were fed with various amounts of attenuated S. typhimurium-lux to monitor in vivo clearance over a period of 24 h. We found that the ingested attenuated S. typhimurium-lux cells were almost cleared out 9 h postfeeding, as judged by a significant decrease in bioluminescence. We further examined the therapeutic efficacy of vaccination using attenuated S. typhimurium carrying the mouse alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) gene against a cancer line CT26-murine alpha-feto protein (mAFP) that stably expresses AFP and mouse hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) Hepa1-6. Attenuated S. typhimurium oral DNA vaccine was found to promote protective immunity against both CT26-mAFP and Hepa1-6 tumor cells growth. The oral DNA vaccine significantly increased the life span of tumor-challenged mice in both tumor models. Together, these results suggest that vaccination with the attenuated S. typhimurium oral DNA vaccine that carries the AFP gene could be a promising strategy to prevent HCC development.
