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

BACKGROUND/

aimSince temozolomide (TMZ) is activated under alkaline conditions, we expected lonidamine (LND) to have no effect or perhaps diminish its activity, but initial results suggest it may actually enhance either or both short- and long-term activity of TMZ in melanoma xenografts. MATERIALS AND

methodsCohorts of 5 mice with subcutaneous xenografts ~5 mm in diameter were treated with saline (control (CTRL)), LND only, TMZ only or LND followed by TMZ at t=40 min (time required for maximal tumor acidification).

resultsMean tumor volume for LND+TMZ for the period between 6 and 26 days was reduced compared to TMZ alone (repeated measures ANOVA F (1, 8), p=0.006), suggesting a pronounced impact of LND on this phenomenon. TMZ and LND+TMZ produced median growth delays of 82 and 106 days, respectively.

conclusionThe use of TMZ alone and in combination with LND deserves further investigation in treatment of melanoma and other malignancies.
