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.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveThe aim of this study is to observe the changes of MMP-2 and its regulators, and to investigate the mechanism of the two administration sequences of recombinant human endostatin (rh-endostatin) and docetaxel.
methodsThe experiment was performed as 2 stages. Firstly, nude mice with xenograft tumor were randomized into 2 groups as rh-endostatin-treated group with rh-endostatin 400 microg x d(-1), d1-d14 and docetaxel-traeted group with docetaxel 10 mg x kg(-1) x 3d(-1), d1-d14. Secondly, nude mice with xenograft tumor were randomized into 3 groups as concurrent administration group (rh-endostatin 400 microg x d(-1), d1-d35, docetaxel 10 mg x kg(-1) x 3d(-1), d1-d19), endo-first group (rh-endostatin 400 microg x d(-1), d1-d35, docetaxel 10 mg x kg(-1) x 3(d-1), d16-d34) and model group (positive control, mice burdened tumor without treatment). The volume of tumor was measured during treatment. Detection of the expressions of MMP-2, TIMP-2, EMMPRIN and the count of microvessel density (MVD) by immunohistochemistry stain examination were carried out at the end of experiment.
resultsCompared with the docetaxel-treated group, more obvious down-regulation of expression of MMP-2, EMMPRIN (P = 0.024, P = 0.081) were observed in rh-endostatin-treated group. No significant difference was found in TIMP-2 expression between the 2 groups. In combined treatment groups, at the endpoint tumor volumes of concurrent administration group and the endo-first group were remarkably smaller than that in model group (P < 0.001, P = 0.003). According to the administration procedure, concurrent administration inhibited tumor growth stronger than endo-first treatment did. Both of the combined groups down-regulated the expression of MMP-2 and decreased microvessel density (P < 0.05). Compared with model group, the expression of TIMP-2 was upregulated (P = 0.001) as well as EMMPRIN down-regulated (P = 0.018) in concurrent adminis- tration group. Oppositely, the same results were not observed in the endo-first group.
conclusionThe schedule of the concurrent administration group could inhibit the tumor growth better, and it down-regulated MMP-2 expression through TIMP-2 and EMMPRIN, and thus slow down the tumor growth superiorly to another schedule of treatment.
