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

We evaluated a new therapeutic strategy for malignant glioma, which combines intratumoral inoculation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) expressing cytosine deaminase gene with 5-fluorocytosine (5-FC) administration. For in vitro and in vivo experiments, MSCs were transfected with adenovirus carrying either enhanced green fluorescent protein gene (AdexCAEGFP) or cytosine deaminase gene (AdexCACD), to establish MSC-expressing EGFP (MSC-EGFP) or CD (MSC-CD). Co-culture of 9L glioma cells with MSC-CD in a medium containing 5-FC resulted in a remarkable reduction in 9L cell viability. The migratory ability of MSC-EGFP toward 9L cells was demonstrated by double-chamber assay. For the in vivo study, rats harboring 9L brain tumors were inoculated with MSC-EGFP or MSC-CD. Immunohistochemistry of rat brain tumors inoculated with MSC-EGFP showed intratumoral distribution of MSC-EGFP. Survival analysis of rats bearing 9L gliomas treated with intratumoral MSC-CD and intraperitoneal 5-FC resulted in significant prolongation of survival compared with control animals. In conclusion, molecular therapy combining suicide gene therapy and MSCs as a targeting vehicle represents a potential new therapeutic approach for malignant glioma, both with respect to the antitumor potential of this system and its neuroprotective effect on normal brain tissue.
