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

objectiveTo assess the safety and clinical antiangiogenic effect of recombinant adenovirus-p53 (rAd-p53) combined with hyperthermia plus or not plus radiotherapy in advanced cancer.

methodsExpression of Vascular epithelial growth factor (VEGF) after intratumoral injection of rAd-p53 was assayed by immunohistochemistry (IHC) imaging. Forty-four patients with advanced cancer were enrolled into this clinical study. The patients were intratumorally injected with rAd-p53 (Gendicine) at a dose of 1×10(12) vp once a week, with a total of 4-54 (mean 7.7) times. Total of 4-29 (mean 8.5) times of hyperthermia was given to the patients. Among the 44 patients, 30 patients were concurrently added with radiotherapy of a total dose 30-76 Gy/15-38 f/3-8 w (mean 58 Gy).

resultsBefore and after intratumoral injection of rAd-p53, the VEGF IHC positive cell scores were 2.80 and 1.50, respectively (P=0.031). The treatment of rAd-p53 combined with hyperthermia plus or not plus radiotherapy in advanced cancer achieved CR rate of 13.60% (6/44), and PR rate of 29.6% (13/44), and thus the effective rate was 43.2%. In addition to 6 patients with CR, 19 patients (19/38, 50.0%) had low density area (LDA) of more than 50% area on CT image within tumor indicating tumor tissue necrosis.

conclusionsOur data indicate that rAd-p53 inhibits VEGF expression and angiogenesis, and promotes tumor necrosis and shrinkage induced by hyperthermia plus or not plus radiotherapy in advanced cancer.
