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

purposeUltrasound-targeted microbubble destruction (UTMD) has been reported to be a meritorious technique for drug targeting delivery. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the synergistic antiangiogenic effect of UTMD combined with Endostar on triple-negative breast carcinoma tumors. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe lipid-shelled microbubbles (MBs) conjugated with Endostar were constructed using a biotin-avidin bridging chemistry method, and the morphological characteristics and drug-conjugating content were determined. MBs were administered intravenously to nude mice bearing MDA-MB-231 breast carcinoma xenografts and ultrasound exposure followed. The tumor microcirculation was observed by contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and the Endostar biodistribution was detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Twenty-four breast carcinoma-bearing nude mice were divided into four groups. After treatment, every 3 days for 15 days the in vivo antitumor effects were assessed by calculating the tumor growth inhibition rate (TGIR). The tumor microcirculation was observed by CEUS, the tumor microvessel density (MVD) was calculated by immunohistochemistry under a microscope, and the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) gene expression was detected by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction.

resultsThe prepared Endostar-conjugated MBs were round and well-dispersed with a mean size of 2.8 ± 0.7 µm and a drug conjugating content of 800.72 ± 70.53 µg/10

conclusionUTMD can improve Endostar delivery in the targeting tumor tissue and mediate synergistic antiangiogenetic and antitumor effects, which may be a potential therapeutic strategy for refractory breast cancer.
