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

The effects of the poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors 4-amino-1,8-naphthalimide (4-ANI), 6(5H)-phenanthridinone (PHD), 1,5-isoquinolinediol (IQD), 3-aminobenzamide (3-AB) or 4-hydroxyquinazoline (4-HYA) on the cytotoxicity of cisplatin were investigated. The human ovarian tumor cell lines SK-OV-3 and OAW 42 and the rat ovarian tumor cell line O-342 as well as its cisplatin (DDP)-resistant subline O-342/DDP were used. Cytotoxicity was determined with the 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay. 1-Methyl-3-nitro-1-nitrosoguanidine (MNNG) plus its respective combinations with poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitors served as positive controls. In addition, the alkylating agents L-threitol-1,4-bismethanesulfonate (DHB) and 1,3-bis(2-chloroethyl)-1-nitrosourea (carmustine) as well as two other DNA-repair inhibitors caffeine and theophylline were included in the investigations. The cytotoxicity of cisplatin could not be increased by 4-ANI, PHD, IQD, 4-HYA or 3-AB in any cell line investigated, while it was increased by caffeine in lines O-342/DDP and SK-OV-3 as well as by theophylline in lines O-342/DDP, SK-OV-3 and OAW 42. The cytotoxicity of MNNG was increased by combination with 4-ANI, PHD, IQD, 4-HYA, 3-AB or theophylline for all lines except OAW42; in the latter line, only 4-ANI, PHD and IQD increased MNNG cytotoxicity. The cytotoxicity of DHB was increased by 4-ANI, PHD, 4-HYA, theophylline and caffeine in line O-342/DDP; by 4-HYA, theophylline and caffeine in line SK-OV-3; and by theophylline and caffeine in line OAW42. The cytotoxicity of carmustine was increased only by 3-AB in two lines (SK-OV-3 and OAW 42). Results are discussed with regard to different DNA-repair mechanisms.
