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

Cancer metastasis to lymph nodes (LNs) almost certainly contributes to distant metastasis. Elevation of LN internal pressure (intranodal pressure, INP) during tumor proliferation is associated with a poor prognosis for patients. We have previously reported that a lymphatic drug delivery system (LDDS) allows the direct delivery of anticancer drugs into the lymphatic system and is a promising treatment strategy for early-stage LN metastasis. However, methods for evaluating the treatment effects have not been established. Here, we used a mouse model of MXH10/Mo-lpr/lpr, which develops a systemic swelling of LNs, and murine malignant fibrous histiocytoma-like (KM-Luc/GFP) cells or murine breast cancer (FM3A-Luc) cells inoculated into the subiliac LN of mice to produce a tumor-bearing LN model. The changes in INP during intranodal tumor progression and after treatment with cis-dichlorodiammineplatinum(II) (CDDP) using an LDDS were measured. We found that tumor progression was associated with an increase in INP that occurred independently of LN volume changes. The elevation in INP was suppressed by CDDP treatment with the LDDS when intranodal tumor progression was significantly inhibited. These findings indicate that INP is a useful parameter for monitoring the therapeutic effect in patients with LN metastasis who have been given drugs using an LDDS, which will serve to manage cancer metastasis treatment and contribute to an improved quality of life for cancer patients.
