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

FTY720 is a sphingosine analogue that down regulates expression of sphingosine-1-phosphate receptors and causes apoptosis of multiple tumor cell types, including glioma cells. This study examined the effect of FTY720 on brain tumor stem cells (BTSCs) derived from human glioblastoma (GBM) tissue. FTY720 treatment of BTSCs led to rapid inactivation of ERK MAP kinase, leading to upregulation of the BH3-only protein Bim and apoptosis. In combination with temozolomide (TMZ), the current standard chemotherapeutic agent for GBM, FTY720 synergistically induced BTSC apoptosis. FTY720 also slowed growth of intracranial xenograft tumors in nude mice and augmented the therapeutic effect of TMZ, leading to enhanced survival. Furthermore, the combination of FTY720 and TMZ decreased the invasiveness of BTSCs in mouse brains. FTY720 is known to cross the blood-brain barrier and recently received Food and Drug Administration approval for treatment of relapsing multiple sclerosis. Thus, FTY720 is an excellent potential therapeutic agent for treatment of GBM.
