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

Human papillomavirus (HPV) infection is the major etiological factor for cervical cancer. HPV prophylactic vaccines based on L1 virus-like particles have been considered as an effective prevention method. However, existing recombination vaccines are too expensive for developing countries. DNA vaccines might be a lower-cost and effective alternative. In this study, a plasmid (pcDNA3.1-HPV16-L1) and a co-expressing plasmid (pcDNA3.1-HPV16-L1-siE6) carried by attenuated Salmonella were constructed and their prevention and treatment effect on cervical cancer were observed, respectively. The results showed that pcDNA3.1-HPV16-L1 carried by attenuated Salmonella could induce the production of HPV16-L1 antibodies, IL-2 and INF-γ in mice serum, which presented its prevention effect on HPV. Subsequently, E6 and E7 gene silencing by pCG-siE6 inhibited the growth of cervical cancer both in vitro and in vivo. Furthermore, L1 up-regulation and E6/E7 down-regulation caused by co-expressing plasmid (pcDNA3.1-HPV16-L1-siE6) contributed to a significant anti-tumor effect on the mice. This study suggests that pcDNA3.1-HPV16-L1-siE6 carried by attenuated Salmonella has a synergistic effect of immune regulation and RNA interference in cervical cancer treatment.
