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

There has been a significant clinical demand for lymph-directed anti-metastatic therapy as tumor-draining lymph nodes play pivotal roles in cancer metastasis which accounts for more than 90% of tumor-related deaths. Despite the high potential of nitric oxide (NO) in anti-cancer therapy owing to its biocompatibility and tumor cell-specific cytotoxicity, the poor stability and lack of target specificity of present NO donors and delivery systems have limited its clinical applications. Herein, a redox-triggered self-immolative NO prodrug that can be readily conjugated to various materials containing free thiol groups such as albumin, is reported. The prodrug and its conjugates demonstrate smart release of NO donor via intramolecular cyclization under reductive conditions, followed by spontaneously generating NO in physiological conditions. The albumin-prodrug conjugate inhibits tumor metastasis by inducing cytotoxicity preferentially on tumor cells after efficiently draining into lymph nodes. This novel prodrug can contribute to the development of on-demand NO delivery systems for anti-metastatic therapy and other treatments.
