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

The tumor microenvironment of colon carcinoma, the site at which tumor cells and the host immune system interact, is influenced by signals from tumor cells, immunocompetent cells, and bacterial components, including LPS. A large amount of LPS is available in the colon, and this could promote inflammation and metastasis by enhancing tumor cell adhesion to the endothelium. Polydatin (PD), the 3-β-D-glucoside of trans-resveratrol, is a polyphenol with anti-cancer, anti-inflammatory, and immunoregulatory effects. This study was designed to explore whether PD is able to produce antiproliferative effects on three colon cancer lines, to reduce the expression of adhesion molecules that are upregulated by LPS on endothelial cells, and to decrease the proinflammatory cytokines released in culture supernatants. Actually, we investigated the effects of PD on tumor growth in a coculture model with human mononuclear cells (MNCs) that mimics, at least in part, an in vitro tumor microenvironment. The results showed that PD alone or in combination with MNC exerts antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects on cancer cells, inhibits the production of the immunosuppressive cytokine IL-10 and of the proinflammatory cytokines upregulated by LPS, and reduces E-selectin and VCAM-1 on endothelial cells. These data provide preclinical support to the hypothesis that PD could be of potential benefit as a therapeutic adjuvant in colon cancer treatment and prevention.
