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

introductionMannose, a major monosaccharide component of N-glycans, involves in the glycometabolism of human body. Recently, mannose has been shown to suppress tumor growth through enhancing chemosensitivity and reducing the activity of mannose phosphate isomerase (MPI). However, it is largely unknown whether mannose exerts effects on non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). MATERIALS AND

methodsFirst, a mannose IC50 assay was conducted to find a suitable concentration of mannose for cell experiments. Then, vitro studies including CCK-8 assay, scratch wound healing assay, and TUNEL assay were performed to evaluate the effects of mannose on A549 cells, and an animal model was established to evaluate the antitumoural effect of mannose on NSCLC in vivo. Finally, immunohistochemistry was done to detect the expression of MPI by Rabbit Anti-MPI.

resultsIn this study, a concentration of mannose, 15mM, was used to explore the suppressive effect of mannose on A549 cells. CCK-8 assay demonstrated that mannose significantly inhibited the proliferation of A549 cells and enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of carboplatin. Wound healing assay showed that mannose inhibits the migration of A549 cells, and mannose-induced migration inhibition was more efficient in A549 cells treated with carboplatin. TUNEL assay demonstrated that mannose significantly enhanced the efficacy of carboplatin to promote apoptosis treated by mannose (15mM) or carboplatin. The results of animal experiments revealed that the size and weight of tumors derived from A549 cells treated with mannose were smaller than those derived from control cells, and co-treatment with mannose and carboplatin had most efficient inhibition on tumor growth. MPI expression detection showed that the expression level of MPI in the stage Tis (tumor in situ) was the highest, while the stage IV has the lowest. DISCUSSION: Collectively, our findings suggest that mannose inhibited cell proliferation and migration, promoted cell apoptosis and enhanced the efficacy of carboplatin in lung adenocarcinoma. Preliminary results showed that mannose had less side effect on health. In the future, mannose may be a potential candidate drug for adjuvant therapy of lung adenocarcinoma.
