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

Lung cancer remains the leading cause of cancer-related death worldwide, and the high incidence rates are worrisome. Exosomes are a class of extracellular vesicles secreted by most cells, including RNAs, proteins and lipids. Exosomes can mediate cell-to-cell communication in both physiologic and pathologic processes. Accumulated evidences show that cancer-derived exosomes aid in the recruitment and reprogramming of constituents correlated with tumor microenvironment. Furthermore, exosome-based clinical trials have been completed in advanced lung cancer patients. In this review, we discuss the roles of exosomes in a lung cancer microenvironment, such as its participation in lung cancer initiation, progression and metastasis as well as being involved in angiogenesis, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), immune escape, and drug resistance. In addition, we focus on the potential of exosomes as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in lung cancer, as well as the challenges faced by and advantages of exosomes as drug delivery vehicles and in exosome-based immunotherapy.
