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

purposeWe developed a Tc-99m and fluorescence-labeled peptide, Tc-99m TAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI, to target tumor cells, and evaluated the diagnostic performance as a dual-modality imaging agent for tumor in a murine model.

methodsTAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI was synthesized using Fmoc solid-phase peptide synthesis. Radiolabeling of TAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI with Tc-99m was done using ligand exchange via tartrate. Binding affinity and in vitro cellular uptake studies were performed. Gamma camera imaging, biodistribution, and ex vivo imaging studies were performed in murine models with U87MG tumors. Tumor tissue slides were prepared and analyzed with immunohistochemistry using confocal microscopy.

resultsAfter radiolabeling procedures with Tc-99m, Tc-99m TAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI complexes were prepared in high yield (> 95%). The

conclusionsIn vivo and in vitro studies revealed substantial and specific uptake of Tc-99m TAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI in tumor cells. Tc-99m TAMRA-GHEG-ECG-GNQWFI could be a good candidate dual-modality imaging agent for tumors.
