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/

aimAlthough cisplatin is an effective anticancer drug, its toxic effects on normal tissues limit its use. We developed a herbal formula, MH-30, with increased fat-soluble polyphenols by improving the manufacturing method of HemoHIM. In this study, we examined whether the combination of MH-30 with cisplatin exerts synergistic antitumor effect while it reduces cisplatin-induced toxicities. MATERIALS AND

methodsMH-30 was produced by adding the ethanol-insoluble fraction to its extract after decocting herbs in 30% ethanol and water. We used a melanoma-bearing mice model to investigate synergistic anticancer effects. The NK cell activity and cytokine levels were measured by Cr

resultsMH-30 effectively inhibited melanoma growth in vitro. Furthermore, MH-30 had a synergistic effect in combination with cisplatin on melanoma growth inhibition in vitro and in vivo. In melanoma-bearing mice, cisplatin alone decreased the activity of NK cells and the levels of IL-2 and IFN-γ, which were effectively restored by the combination of MH-30 with cisplatin. Combined treatment with MH-30 and cisplatin significantly inhibited the cisplatin-induced increase in the levels of AST, ALT, BUN, and creatinine.

conclusionCombination of MH-30 with cisplatin may be a beneficial anticancer treatment with reduced adverse effects.
