Article in Zhejiang da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Zhejiang University. Medical sciences, 2015. 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
objectiveTo investigate the anticancer efficacy and the hepatic and renal toxicity of As2O3-lipiodol emulsion via transarterial embolization in a rabbit VX2 liver tumor model.
methodsVX2 tumors were implanted in rabbit livers successfully, followed by transarterial embolization with high-dose As2O3(5 mg/kg with 0.2 mL lipiodol, n=10), low-dose As2O3(1 mg/kg with 0.2 mL lipiodol, n=10), and control(0.2 mL lipiodol, n=10). The growth ratios and microvessel densities(MVDs) of the tumors were estimated by multi-row spiral CT and CD34 immunohistochemical staining, respectively. Hepatic and renal function was also evaluated by means of blood biochemical analysis.
resultsThe growth ratios of the tumors differed significantly among three groups(P<0.01). The high-dose and low dose group showed significantly lower tumor growth ratios[44.05%(-36.40%~64.60%), 95.20%(-11.60%~159.40%)] than control group[145.55%(98.90%~250.30%), all P<0.05]. The MVDs of the tumors were significantly lower in the high-dose(21.4±10.6) and low-dose group(34.1±12.0) than those in control group(57.9±16.1,all P<0.05). The levels of blood ALT and AST obtained 28 days after transarterial embolization were significantly lower in the high-dose[(25.50±12.37)U/L,(24.25±10.89)U/L] and low-dose group[(45.00±14.04)U/L,(35.22±11.86)U/L] than in control group[(79.12±30.52)U/L,(75.25±25.89)U/L, all P<0.05].
conclusionAs2O3-lipiodol emulsion via transarterial embolization has anticancer effect without significant hepatic and renal functional damage in rabbit VX2 liver tumors.
