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

backgroundWe previously found that r-hu-IFNgamma exerts a potent anti-tumor effect on human nasopharyngeal carcinoma xenografts in vivo. Considering the fact that the clinical use of recombinant IFNgamma is limited by its short half-life and systemic side effects, we developed a recombinant adenovirus, Ad-IFNgamma.

methodsDynamic distribution of the adenovirus vector and expression of IFNgamma were evaluated by Q-PCR and ELISA after intratumoral administration of Ad-IFNgamma into CNE-2 xenografts.

resultsAd-IFNgamma DNA was mainly enriched in tumors where the Ad-IFNgamma DNA was injected (P < 0.05, compared to blood or parenchymal organs), as well as in livers (P < 0.05). Concentrations of Ad-IFNgamma DNA in other organs and blood were very low. Intratumoral Ad-IFNgamma DNA decreased sharply at high concentrations (9 x 10(5) copies/microg tissue DNA), and slowly at lower concentrations (1.7-2.9 x 10(5) copies/microg tissue DNA). IFNgamma was detected in the tumors and parenchymal organs. The concentration of IFNgamma was highest in the tumor (P < 0.05), followed by the liver and kidney (P < 0.05). High-level intratumoral expression of IFNgamma was maintained for at least 7 days, rapidly peaking on day 3 after injection of Ad-IFNgamma DNA.

conclusionAn IFNgamma gene delivered by an adenoviral vector achieved high and consistent intratumoral expression. Disseminated Ad-IFNgamma DNA and the transgene product were mainly enriched in the liver.
