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

Malignant melanoma is a highly aggressive skin cancer responsible for 80% of mortality, and the overall median survival in patients with metastatic melanoma is only 6-9 months. Combination treatment through the simultaneous administration of dual drugs in a single nanocarrier has been demonstrated to be elegant and effective in combatting cancer. Herein, we employ a combination therapy based on dacarbazine (DBZ), FDA approved drug for melanoma and all-trans retinoic acid (ATRA), promising anticancer agents loaded on lipid nanoformulations (RD-LNF) as a new treatment strategy for malignant melanoma. We have successfully encapsulated both the drugs in lipid nanoformulations and showed a controlled release of payload over time. We demonstrated that the simultaneous delivery of DBZ and ATRA could effectively reduce cell proliferation in a concentration-dependent manner. The combinational nanoparticles significantly reduced the colony formation ability of B16F10 melanoma cells. Flow cytometer analysis showed that RD-LNF induced a greater proportion of apoptosis cells with significant inhibition of cell cycle progression and cell migration. These results suggest the promising potential of RD-LNF in the treatment of malignant melanoma with high efficacy.
