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

purposeTruncated tissue factor (tTF) fusion protein targeting tumor vasculature can induce tumor vascular thrombosis and necrosis. Here, we generated (RGD)₃-tTF in which three arginine-glycine-aspartic (RGD) targeting integrin α(v)β₃ and tTF induce blood coagulation in tumor vessels.

methodsThe bioactivities of (RGD)₃-tTF including coagulation activity, FX activation, and binding with integrin α(v)β₃ were performed. The fluorescent labeled (RGD)₃-tTF was intravenously injected into tumor-bearing mice and traced in vivo. The tumor growth, volume, blood vessel thrombosis, tumor necrosis, and survival time of mice treated with (RGD)₃-tTF were evaluated.

resultsThe clotting time and FX activation of (RGD)₃-tTF were similar to that of TF (P > 0.05) but different with that of RGD (P < 0.05). (RGD)₃-tTF presented a higher binding with α(v)β₃ than that of RGD and TF at the concentration of 0.2 μmol/L (P < 0.05). (RGD)₃-tTF could specifically assemble in tumor and be effective in reducing tumor growth by selectively inducing tumor blood vessels thrombosis and tumor necrosis which were absent in mice treated with RGD or TF. The survival time of mice treated with (RGD)₃-tTF was higher than that of mice treated with TF or RGD (P < 0.05).

conclusion(RGD)₃-tTF may be a promising strategy for the treatment of colorectal cancer.
