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

backgroundThomsen-Friedenreich antibody (TF-Ab) is a specific antibody against the Thomsen-Friedenreich antigen (TF-Ag). At present, studies on a number of other tumors have shown that TF-Ab can effectively inhibit metastasis and induce apoptosis in tumor cells. However, the role of TF-Ab in thyroid cancer (TC) remains unclear. MATERIALS AND

methodsNormal subjects and patients with primary papillary TC with or without lymph node metastasis were tested for TF-Ab expression by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs). Immunofluorescence was used to assess the expression of TF-Ag in thyroid papillary carcinoma with or without lymph node metastasis and undifferentiated cancer tissues. To evaluate the role of TF-Ab in TC, the effects of TF monoclonal antibody (mAb A78-G/A7) on cell biological function were investigated by MTT assays, flow cytometry, adhesion assays and transwell experiments.

resultsCompared with normal individuals, TF-Ab levels in patients with TC were decreased, but no changes were observed with respect to lymph node metastasis. The expression of TF-Ag in TC tissues was relatively higher than that detected in adjacent tissues, but it was not affected by the presence or absence of lymph node metastasis. Upon treatment mAb A78-G/A7 treating, TC cell cycles were affected, meanwhile the abilities to adhere, invade and migrate were also significantly reduced.

conclusionThe results of the present study showed that mAb A78-G/A7 could affect the invasion and migration of all assayed TC cell lines. The effects of mAb A78-G/A7 on the cell cycle, adhesion, invasion and migration of TC cells were more significant than those observed for proliferation and apoptosis.
