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 peptidergic systems are involved in neuroblastoma. Peptides (angiotensin II, neuropeptide Y, neurotensin, substance P) act as oncogenic agents in neuroblastoma, whereas others (adrenomedullin, corticotropin-releasing factor, urocortin, orexin) exert anticancer effects against neuroblastoma. This plethora of peptidergic systems show the functional complexity of the mechanisms regulated by peptides in neuroblastoma. Peptide receptor antagonists act as antineuroblastoma agents since these compounds counteracted neuroblastoma cell growth and migration and the angiogenesis promoted by oncogenic peptides. Other therapeutic approaches (signaling pathway inhibitors, focal adhesion kinase inhibitors, peptide receptor knockdown, acetic acid analogs) that also counteract the beneficial effects mediated by the oncogenic peptides in neuroblastoma are discussed, and future research lines to be developed in neuroblastoma (interactions between oncogenic and anticancer peptides, combination therapy using peptide receptor antagonists and chemotherapy/radiotherapy) are also suggested. Although the data regarding the involvement of the peptidergic systems in neuroblastoma are, in many cases, fragmentary or very scarce for a particular peptidergic system, taken together, they are quite promising with respect to potentiating and developing this research line with the aim of developing new therapeutic strategies to treat neuroblastoma in the future. Peptidergic systems are potential and promising targets for the diagnosis and treatment of neuroblastoma.
