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/

aimIn prostate cancer (PC), the formation of new blood vessels is stimulated by hypoxic conditions, androgens, and a number of molecular factors including microRNAs. MicroRNA-1 (miR-1) has been characterized in some tumor entities as anti-angiogenic, but this has not yet been investigated in PC. MATERIALS AND

methodsPC cells stably overexpressing miR-1 (LNCaP-miR-1) were incubated on an in vivo hen's egg test-chorioallantoic membrane (HET-CAM) model and compared to maternal LNCaP cells. Cell growth, blood vessel organisation, and total blood vessel area were analysed.

resultsBoth matrigel-embedded LNCaP and LNCaP-miR-1 cells formed compact tumor-like cell aggregates on the CAM of the HET-CAM model. Although not quantifiable, bleeding of the CAM and remodelling of the blood vessel network in the CAM indicated an influence of miR-1 on the vascular system. The statistically significant decrease in the total surface area of blood vessels in the visible CAM section to 79.4% of control cells demonstrated the antiangiogenic properties of miR-1 for the first time.

conclusionMiR-1 had a tumor-suppressive and anti-angiogenic effect in an in vivo PC model. In the clinic, miR-1-mediated anti-angiogenesis would result in reduced tumor supply and increased hypoxic stress inside the tumor. Thus, miR-1 restoration by nucleic acid-based miR-1 mimetics would represent a promising option for future PC therapy.
