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

Gallbladder cancer is the most common biliary tract malignancy and the fifth most common gastrointestinal malignancy. Chemo-resistance is the most remarkable characteristic of gallbladder cancer. The relatively dense extracellular space in tumor is the main barrier to nanotherapeutics' anticancer efficacy. Hyaluronan (HA) was shown in our previous study to significantly improve the myxoma virus distribution via promoting the MMP-9 production, which degrades collagen IV. We demonstrated that HA increased the chemo-sensitivity of gallbladder cancer cells both in vitro and in vivo. The in vivo chemo-sensitization effect of HA could partially be due to the penetration-promoting effect of HA via degrading collagen IV.
