Monitoring the production of reactive oxygen species in experimental melanoma.
Article in Journal of medicine and life, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
hypothesisMelanoma is one of the most aggressive forms of skin cancer characterized by malignant proliferation of melanocytes. The role played by reactive oxygen species and free radicals in the pathology of melanoma in humans is widely accepted today.
objectiveThis paper aims to characterize some types of malignant melanoma obtained experimentally by the inoculation of reference cells for the creation of models and the identification of oxidative stress markers usable for monitoring tumor growth and development. METHODS AND
resultsMice C57Bl/6. Reference cell lines B16, F1, F10. Inoculation of cells was performed in the upper right flank. Tumors were characterized both anatomically and morphologically. For the biochemical characterization of the oxidative stress, tests were performed to determine lipid peroxides, total albumin thiol groups and total antioxidant response. Tumor volume was measured in dynamic. The fastest development has been observed in type B melanoma. For the F and F10 types, the curves profiles are the same. The results indicate an increase of lipid peroxidation reaction in dynamic tumor evolution, suggesting the malignant associated transformations. DISCUSSION: These data demonstrate that an alteration of the antioxidant pattern can be detected in the serum of the experimental animals with melanoma, possibly related to the disease status and progression. Our results can be useful in monitoring the tumor evolution and also to highlight the prolonged damage which actions on the normal cells, suggesting the combination of the classical treatments with an adjuvant antioxidant treatment.
