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: Achieving a complete radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for a solid malignant tumor of large size or at high-risk locations is challenging. A slow release of doxorubicin by liposomal doxorubicin (L-Dox) in solid tumors can selectively suppress the immune suppressive cells. In this study, the feasibility of using anti-CD24 antibody plus L-Dox was explored to inhibit residual cancers after incomplete RFA (iRFA) of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), with an attempt to reduce the tumor recurrences post-RFA. Methods: The expressions of CD24 protein and sialic-acid-binding lg-like lectin 10 (Siglec-10) in residual cancers after iRFA of human HCC were evaluated. The mice orthotopic HCC models were treated by (1) pseudo iRFA: the ablation electrode was only put in the live tumor but without ablation treatment; (2) iRFA: the tumors only received iRFA treatment; (3) iRFA+anti-CD24 antibody; (4) iRFA+L-Dox; (5) iRFA+anti-CD24 antibody+L-Dox. The treatment effects and the immune microenvironment of treated tumors in each group were assessed and compared. Results: The CD24 protein and Siglec-10 were highly expressed in the residual cancers ( Conclusion: The combined therapy of anti-CD24 antibody with L-Dox could significantly improve the suppressive tumor immune microenvironment and result in a strong tumor-killing immunity in residual cancers, which significantly inhibited the residual cancers after iRFA of HCC. These findings may lead to a new strategy of enhancing the curative efficacy of RFA for large-sized HCC or HCC at high-risk locations.
