Investigation of Fibroblast Growth Factor Peptide Antagonist on Mouse Model Breast Tumor through ERK/MAPK and PI3K/AKT Signaling Pathways.

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.
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
backgroundIn the majority of cancers, metastasis of tumor cells is the main cause of treatment failure. This study intended to investigate the effectiveness of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) peptide designed to inhibit tumor growth in 4T1 metastatic breast cancer through the PI3K/AKT and ERK/MAPK signal transduction pathways.
methodsThe tumor was induced through 4T1 tumor graft in BALB/c mice. The designed peptide was injected intraperitoneal at three selected doses after two weeks for 14 days. The PBS and doxorubicin were used as the negative and positive control groups, respectively. Tumor size was measured and after the treatment period, the mice underwent a surgery and tumors were used for the western blot examinations.
resultsthe peptide injection was effective in reducing or inhibiting tumor growth in mice model and in vitro. The western blot analysis results showed that the p-AKT and p-ERK levels in peptide treated tumors were reduced (p<0.05).
conclusionThe peptide injection was effective in mice model. Findings showed that in the two signal transduction pathways, the p-AKT and p-ERK levels were significantly different from the negative control group.
