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

Deleterious invasiveness of glioma cells into the normal brain tissue is endorsed by its inherent ability to regulate the receptor-mediated adhesive properties, extracellular matrix degradation and remodeling and elevated secretory ability of metalloproteinase (MMPs) such as MMP-2. By doing so, it will create an intercellular space for the invasion of glioma cells. Here, we reported that combination of gene therapy Buthus martensii Karsch (BmK) CT, a type of scorpion toxin peptide, with lithium chloride (LiCl), clinically used as mood stabilizer, could inhibit the migration and invasion of C6 glioma cells. The results showed that concomitant administration of LiCl and pEGFP-N1-BmK CT on glioma cells would hamper pro-MMP2 secretion and in the meantime, inhibited its proliferation in a synergistic manner. These results try to extrapolate the potential interplay between the combined treatment of LiCl and BmK CT with signaling pathways β-catenin, MMP, GSK-3 in C6 glioma cells. This strategy can stand for a novel approach designated for the development of a new method for glioma therapy.
