Interferon-beta inhibits liver metastases from murine colon 26 carcinoma and its highly metastatic variant.

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.
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
purposeThe antitumor effects of Interferon-beta (IFN-beta) are due to its direct inhibition of cell proliferation, immunostimulatory activity, and the inhibition of angiogenesis. We investigated the mechanism of the effects of IFN-beta on a murine colon 26 cell line (CT 26) and its highly metastatic variant (L5).
methodsWe examined its inhibitory effects on cell proliferation in vitro and the development of liver metastases in vivo.
resultsThe proliferation of CT 26 in vitro was inhibited by IFN-beta in a dose- and time-dependent manner. The number of metastases was reduced in mice inoculated with CT 26 (P<0.01) and L5 (P<0.01) on Day 14 after treatment with IFN-beta. The median survival rate of the mice inoculated with L5 administered IFN-beta every other day, or every day was higher than in the control group (P<0.05). A dorsal air sac assay demonstrated that IFN-beta inhibited angiogenesis in mice inoculated with CT 26, but the effects disappeared with aminoguanidine, an inducible nitric oxide synthase inhibitor.
conclusionThese results showed that IFN-beta directly inhibits the proliferation of CT 26. In addition, the in vivo experiments suggested that IFN-beta might effectively inhibit liver metastases.
