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

purposePancreatic cancer (PC) is predicted to become the second leading cause of cancer associated deaths by 2020. Earlier, we confirmed the development and efficacy of our novel Loratadine Self-Microemulsifying-Drug-Delivery-System - Sulforaphane (LOR SMEDDS -SFN) nanoformulation in PC chemoprevention. In this report, we extend our studies to evaluate the PC chemoprevention efficacy of LOR SMEDDS - SFN.

methodsThe nanoformulation was subjected to in vitro colony formation assays, in vivo oral pharmacokinetics and stability studies.

resultsThe colony formation assay using Panc-1 PC cells demonstrated a survival fraction of 0.74 with LOR-SFN (p < 0.001) which further reduced to 0.35 with LOR SMEDDS-SFN treatment (p  < 0.0001) confirming the synergistic chemoprevention efficacy of the nanoformulation. Further, the oral pharmacokinetic studies of LOR SMEDDS-SFN showed 4-fold and 9-fold increase in C

conclusionOur studies have demonstrated a potential of LOR SMEDDS-SFN nanoformulation as an effective PC chemoprevention strategy.
