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

backgroundDespite advances in ovarian cancer treatment, the tendency for cancer cells to metastasise to the peritoneum still results in poor prognosis. Studies have demonstrated that the integrin family plays a role in this metastasis; however, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Triptolide (TP) has been confirmed to have a strong cytotoxic effect against ovarian cancer. However, its clinical application is limited by its severe systemic toxicity and low water solubility.

methodsThis study investigated the integrins involved in peritoneal metastasis and their associated mechanisms. Furthermore, Si/TP@Exos were constructed to counteract the metastatic potential of ovarian cancer cells.

resultsIn vitro experiments showed that the construction of the ITGA4B2/AEP ternary complex contributed to the peritoneal metastasis of ovarian cancer by activating the IL-17 and NF-kappa B signalling pathways. Thus, whether the combined application of siRNA targeting ITGA4B2 and TP could further overcome peritoneal metastasis in ovarian cancer was investigated. In vitro results indicated that Si/TP@Exos were efficiently taken up by ovarian cancer cells, thus significantly enhancing the apoptosis of tumor cells. Similarly, Si/TP@Exos were effectively enriched in the tumor areas and exerted anti-tumor activity obviously in vivo.

conclusionsTogether, these findings present a novel strategy to overcome the peritoneal metastasis tendency of ovarian cancer and offer a potential therapeutic solution for clinical treatment of ovarian cancer. The combination of traditional Chinese medicine nano drug delivery platforms provides a new perspective for cancer treatment.
