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

Suicide gene therapy combined with chemokines provides significant antitumor efficacy. Coexpression of suicide gene and monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) increases antitumor effects in murine models of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and colon cancer. However, it is unclear whether the doses administered achieved the maximum antitumor effects. We evaluated antitumor effects of various amounts of recombinant adenovirus vector (rAd) expressing MCP-1 in the presence of a suicide gene in a murine model of HCC. HCC cells were transplanted subcutaneously into BALB/c nude mice, and transduced with a fixed amount of Ad-tk harboring the suicide gene, HSV-tk, and various doses of Ad-MCP1 harboring MCP-1 (ratios of 1:1, 0.1:1, and 0.01:1 relative to Ad-tk). Growth of primary tumors was suppressed when treated with Ad-tk plus Ad-MCP1 (1:1 and 1:0.1) as compared with Ad-tk alone. The antitumor effects against tumor rechallenge tended to be high in the Ad-tk plus Ad-MCP1 group (1:0.1). The effects were dependent on production of Th1 type-cytokines. Delivery of an optimal amount of rAd expressing MCP-1 enhanced the antitumor effects of suicide gene therapy against HCC by M1 macrophage activation, suggesting that this is a plausible form of cancer gene therapy to prevent HCC progression and recurrence.
