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

Tumor-related angiogenesis is likely to be a potential target for the treatment of cancer. One key to develop this angiostatic strategy would be to find useful angiogenesis inhibitors. Here we report the effects of radicicol, a microbial angiogenesis inhibitor that we previously identified using the chorioallantoic membrane assay, and its novel analog, 14,16-dipalmitoyl-radicicol, on tumor angiogenesis and growth. As expected for agents containing a penolic hydroxyl group, systemic administration of radicicol had little or no effect on neovascularization triggered by a M5076 mouse tumor cell line or a RMT-1 rat mammary carcinoma cell line established from autochthonous rat mammary tumors induced by 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene in a mouse dorsal air sac assay system. The agent did not show growth-inhibitory activity against either transplantable M5076 tumors or autochthonous 7,12-dimethylbenz[a]anthracene-induced rat mammary tumors. In contrast, 14,16-dipalmitoyl-radicicol potently suppressed tumor angiogenesis and growth in these experimental models. Furthermore, the analog significantly prolonged the survival rate of M5076-implanted mice. Although not stronger than radicicol, it dose-dependently inhibited embryonic angiogenesis in the chorioallantoic membrane assay, the dose required for half-maximal inhibition (ID(50)) value being 23 microg (27 nmol) per egg, and showed concentration-dependent antiproliferative activity against microvascular endothelial cells in vitro. These data suggest that 14,16-dipalmitoyl-radicicol is a promising antitumor agent with antiangiogenic activity.
