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 prevalence of breast cancer (BC) continues to increase and is the leading cause of cancer deaths in many countries. Numerous in vitro and in vivo studies have demonstrated that 2-methoxyestradiol (2-ME) has antiproliferative and antiangiogenic effects in BC, thereby inhibiting tumour growth and metastasis. We compared the effect of 2-ME in early- and late-stage BC using a transgenic mouse model-FVB/N-Tg(MMTV-PyVT)-of spontaneously development of aggressive mammary carcinoma with lung metastasis. Mice received 100 mg/kg 2-ME treatment immediately when palpable mammary tumours were identified (early-stage BC; Experimental group 1) and 28 days after palpable mammary tumours were detected (late-stage BC; Experimental group 2). 2-ME was administered via oral gavage three times a week for 28 days after initiation of treatment, whereas control mice received the vehicle containing 10% dimethyl sulfoxide and 90% sunflower oil for the same duration as the treatment group. Mammary tumours were measured weekly over the 28 days and at termination, blood, mammary and lung tissue were collected for analysis. Mice with a tumour volume threshold of 4000 mm
