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

In recent years there has been a decline in the incidence of gastric cancer, however the high mortality rate has remained constant. The present study evaluated the potential effects of the retinoid fenretinide on the viability and migration of two cell lines, AGS and NCI-N87, that represented primary and metastatic intestinal gastric cancer subtypes, respectively. It was determined that a similar2 dose of fenretinide reduced the viability of both the primary and metastatic cell lines. In addition, it was demonstrated that combined treatment with fenretinide and cisplatin may affect the viability of both primary and metastatic gastric cancer cells. Furthermore, a wound healing assay demonstrated an inhibitory effect for fenretinide on cell migration. As part of the characterization of the mechanism of action, the effect of fenretinide on reactive oxygen species production and lipid droplet content was evaluated, with the latter as an indirect means of assessing autophagy. These results support the hypothesis of combining using fenretinide with conventional therapies to improve survival rates in advanced or metastatic gastric cancer.
