Evaluation of Cytokine Profile in Canine Malignant Oral Melanoma.
Article in Veterinary sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Ten dogs with oral malignant melanoma were evaluated and treated with surgery, of which four dogs were diagnosed with melanotic melanoma and six were diagnosed with amelanotic melanoma. Serum samples from oral malignant melanoma (OMM) were collected at baseline, the day of the surgery, and every 3-4 months, during which time a clinical examination and chest X-rays were performed. Concentrations of GM-CSF, IFN-γ, IL-2, IL-6, IL-7, IL-8, IL-10, IL-15, IL-18, IP-10, KC-like, MCP-1, and TNFα were quantified. Follow-up samples indicated that after the removal of malignant melanoma, the serum levels of GM-CSF, IFN-γ, MCP-1, IL-18, and IL-2 increased significantly. In contrast, when comparing samples from dogs with OMM to those of patients in remission, the concentrations of IL-7 and MCP-1 were significantly higher in the remission samples than in the OMM samples. Furthermore, when comparing the serum concentrations between the OMM-metastasis samples and those patients in remission, elevated levels of MCP-1 were associated with poorer overall survival due to the development of OMM metastasis. Finally, a comparison of cytokines in the melanotic OMM and amelanotic OMM samples revealed that the amelanotic OMM samples exhibited higher concentrations of IL-6, IL-10, and IL-15 compared to the melanotic OMM samples.
