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

Liver metastases respond poorly to current therapy and remain a frequent cause of cancer-related mortality. We reported previously that tumor cells expressing a soluble form of the insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (sIGFIR) lost the ability to metastasize to the liver. Here, we sought to develop a novel therapeutic approach for prevention of hepatic metastasis based on sustained in vivo delivery of the soluble receptor by genetically engineered autologous bone marrow stromal cells. We found that when implanted into mice, these cells secreted high plasma levels of sIGFIR and inhibited experimental hepatic metastases of colon and lung carcinoma cells. In hepatic micrometastases, a reduction in intralesional angiogenesis and increased tumor cell apoptosis were observed. The results show that the soluble receptor acted as a decoy to abort insulin-like growth factor-I receptor (IGF-IR) functions during the early stages of metastasis and identify sustained sIGFIR delivery by cell-based vehicles as a potential approach for prevention of hepatic metastasis.
