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

Recent studies suggest that high-density lipoprotein (HDL) levels are inversely related to colon cancer risk. HDL mimetics constructed from a number of peptides and proteins with varying structures possess anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties reminiscent of HDL. In this article, we examined whether HDL mimetics, L-4F (an apolipoprotein A-I mimetic peptide) and G* (an apolipoprotein J mimetic peptide) affect tumor growth and development in mouse models of colon cancer. HDL mimetics reduced viability and proliferation of CT26 cells, a mouse colon adenocarcinoma cell line, and decreased CT26 cell-mediated tumor burden in BALB/c mice when administered subcutaneously or orally. Plasma levels of lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), a serum biomarker for colon cancer, were significantly reduced in mice that received HDL mimetics, suggesting that binding and removal of proinflammatory lipids is a potential mechanism for the inhibition of tumor development by HDL mimetics. Furthermore, L-4F significantly reduced size and number of polyps in APC(min/+) mice, a mouse model for human familial adenomatous polyposis, suggesting that HDL mimetics are effective in inhibiting the development of both induced and spontaneous cancers of the colon. Our results, for the first time, identify HDL mimetics as a novel therapeutic strategy for the treatment of colon cancer.
