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

Oncolytic adenoviruses (Onc.Ads) selectively replicate in and lyse cancer cells and are therefore commonly used vectors in clinical trials for cancer gene therapy. Building upon the well-characterized adenoviral natural tropism, genetic modification of Onc.Ad can enhance/regulate their transduction and replication within specific cancer cell types. However, Onc.Ad-mediated tumor cell lysis cannot fully eliminate tumors. The hostile tumor microenvironment provides many barriers to efficient oncolytic virotherapy, as tumors develop structure and immune-evasion mechanisms in order to grow and ultimately spread. For these reasons, Onc.Ads modified to deliver structural or immune modulatory molecules (Armed Onc.Ads) have been developed to overcome the physical and immunological barriers of solid tumors. The combination of oncolysis with tumor microenvironment modulation/destruction may provide a promising platform for Ad-based cancer gene therapy.
