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

Interleukin 12 (IL-12) is a proinflammatory cytokine with antitumor activity. All-trans-retinoic acid (ATRA) exerts antitumor effects by regulating a variety of gene expressions, including tumor necrosis factor receptor 1 (TNFR1), increases the number of TNFR1 and potentiates TNF-alpha-induced apoptosis in cancer cells. In this study, ATRA-incorporated cationic liposome (ATRA-cationic liposome)/IL-12 plasmid DNA (pDNA) complexes were prepared to improve therapeutic efficacy of cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes in a mouse model of metastatic lung tumor after intravenous injection. IL-12 production in lungs by ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes was comparable with that by cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes. The number of metastatic tumor cells (colon26/Luc) was quantitatively evaluated by measuring luciferase activity. ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes reduced the number of colon26/Luc cells and tumor nodules in lungs. ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes significantly prolonged the survival time of mice, whereas cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA only slightly prolonged it. ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes increased the TNFR1 mRNA upregulation and the number of apoptotic cells in the lung. Moreover, reduced serum alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) activities were observed in mice treated with ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes. These results suggest that intravenous injection of ATRA-cationic liposome/IL-12 pDNA complexes is an effective method for the treatment of lung metastasis in mice.
