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

During the course of examining the feasibility of using an adenoviral vector to deliver a potential anti-angiogenic agent to endothelial cells, we discovered that adenoviruses, themselves, have pro-angiogenic activities. Thus, an adenoviral vector containing a green fluorescent protein transgene (Ad-GFP) stimulated the growth, migration, tube formation, and phosphorylation of focal adhesion kinase (FAK) of human lung microvascular endothelial cells. However, adenovirus-mediated endothelial cell mitogenesis, tube formation, and FAK phosphorylation were completely reduced and migration was partially reversed by the addition of a Fak-Related Non-Kinase (FRNK) transgene to the vector. Because FRNK inhibits focal adhesion kinase (FAK) activity, this suggests that the adenoviral effects on endothelial cells are in part mediated through FAK. These data, as well as data obtained in other laboratories, suggest that adenoviruses should be used with caution in cancer gene therapy due to potential pro-angiogenic effects. However, some of these untoward effects may be modulated by concurrent use of a FAK inhibitor.
