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

backgroundMesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) have the ability to migrate into tumors and therefore are potential vehicles for the therapy of malignant diseases. In this study, we investigated the use of umbilical cord blood mesenchymal stem cells (UCB-MSCs) as carriers for a constant source of transgenic LIGHT (TNFSF14) to target tumor cells in vivo.

methodsLentiviral vectors carrying LIGHT genes were constructed, producing viral particles with a titer of 2 × 10(8) TU/L. Fourteen days after UCB-MSCs transfected by LIGHT gene packaged lentivirus had been injected into mouse gastric cancer models, the expression levels of LIGHT mRNA and protein were detected by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Then the tumors' approximate volumes were measured.

resultsThe treatment with MSC-LIGHT demonstrated a strong suppressive effect on tumor growth compared to treatment with MSC and NaCl (p < 0.001). Examination of pathological sections of the tumor tissues showed that the areas of tumor necrocis in the MSC-LIGHT group were larger than those in the MSC group. Moreover, we found that MSCs with LIGHT were able to significantly induce apoptosis of tumor cells. The expression levels of LIGHT mRNA and protein were significantly higher in the UCB-MSCs with the LIGHT gene than the levels in UCB-MSCs (p < 0.001).

conclusionThese results suggest that UCB-MSCs carrying the LIGHT gene have the potential to be used as effective delivery vehicles in the treatment of gastric cancers.
