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

Although (125)I-UdR treatment of malignant tumors in animal models and patients has achieved a certain effect, the short half-life of (125)I-UdR in vivo and its cellular uptake only in S phase of the cell cycle are limiting factors with regard to tumor eradication, and therefore its combination with other applications is a promising strategy in cancer therapy. In this study, we show that (125)I-UdR radionuclide therapy in combination with Egr-1 promoter-based IFNγ gene therapy is more effective than (125)I-UdR therapy alone in suppressing tumor growth and extending survival duration in mice bearing H22 hepatomas. Combined therapy could significantly inhibit cell proliferation and tumor angiogenesis, induce apoptosis and enhance cytotoxic activities of splenic CTL of the mice. Our results suggest that (125)I-UdR in combination with Egr-1 promoter-based IFNγ gene therapy may provide novel approaches for cancer treatment.
