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

Over the last decade, we have seen tremendous progress in research on 2-deoxy-D-glucose (2-DG) and its analogs. Clinical trials of 2-DG have demonstrated the challenges of using 2-DG as a monotherapy, due to its poor drug-like characteristics, leading researchers to focus on improving its bioavailability to tissue and organs. Novel 2-DG analogs such as WP1122 and others have revived the old concept of glycolysis inhibition as an effective anticancer strategy. Combined with other potent cytotoxic agents, inhibitors of glycolysis could synergistically eliminate cancer cells. We focused our efforts on the development of new combinations of anticancer agents coupled with 2-DG and its derivatives, targeting glioblastoma, which is in desperate need of novel approaches and therapeutic options and is particularly suited to glycolysis inhibition, due to its reliance on aerobic glycolysis. Herein, we present evidence that a combined treatment of 2-DG analogs and modulation of histone deacetylases (HDAC) activity via HDAC inhibitors (sodium butyrate and sodium valproate) exerts synergistic cytotoxic effects in glioblastoma U-87 and U-251 cells and represents a promising therapeutic strategy.
