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

Recent progress in anti-tumor therapy has revealed the significance of anti-tumor immune responses in tumor progression and clinical course in several kinds of malignant tumors. The draining lymph node is an important immune system component that contains a number of antigen-presenting cells, which induce rapid immune responses to foreign antigens. Current studies have shown that higher expression of CD169 on lymph node sinus macrophages is associated with the induction of anti-tumor immunity. In the present study, we searched for natural compounds that regulate the CD169-positive phenotype in macrophages to identify potential new anti-cancer agents targeting macrophage activation. Among 50 natural compounds, aculeatiside A, naringin, and onionin A significantly induced the CD169-positive phenotype in human monocyte-derived macrophages. These compounds also induced CD169 overexpression and secretion of inflammatory cytokines, including interleukin (IL)-1β and IL-12, in murine macrophages. Subcutaneous injection of aculeatiside A and naringin enhanced mRNA expression of IL-1β, IL12, and CD169 in regional lymph nodes in mice. These findings suggest aculeatiside A and naringin may enhance anti-tumor immune responses by inducing CD169-positive macrophages in lymph nodes.
