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

Background and Objectives: Nidogen 1 (NID1) is a highly conserved structural component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), which interacts with different basement membrane (BM) proteins to form a stabilized meshwork. The promoting ability of NID1 in cancer development and metastasis has been demonstrated in multiple cancer types, including ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). This suggests that NID1 holds great potential as a therapeutic target for cancer treatment. However, currently, there is a lack of commercially available neutralizing antibody for clinical testing and treatment. Methods: To address this, we utilized hybridoma technology to develop a monoclonal neutralizing antibody which targets the critical G2 region of NID1. The therapeutic effect of this NID1 neutralizing antibody against a wide range of human cancer cells was evaluated. Results: The results showed that NID1 neutralizing antibody effectively attenuated the growth, motility and metastasis of HCC, lung cancer, breast cancer and nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells Conclusions: Taken together, this study offers promising prospects for a new pan-cancer monoclonal antibody-based strategy by targeting the tumor-associated membrane protein NID1.
