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

Photodynamic therapy (PDT) has been recognized as an innovated therapeutic modality for the treatment of various cancers. In this study, we evaluated the anticancer effect of a new photosensitizer 3B in breast cancer, which was considered one of the most common cancers in women worldwide. Here, we determined the effect of 3B not only on the cell growth, apoptosis, and Bcl-2 signal pathway in vitro but also on the anti-cancer effect in nude mice in vivo. Our results showed that 3B was primarily accumulated in mitochondria, increased the level of ROS, induced apoptotic cells death via Bcl-2 family, and its activity could be blocked by the caspase inhibitor (Z-VAD-FMK). In vivo study, 3B made a significant opening inhibition of tumor growth and showed drug toxicity hardly. TUNEL assay indicated that PDT group showed more positive cells (green) than other groups. These data supported that 3B might develop as potential therapeutic drug for the treatment of breast cancer.
