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

Systemic inflammatory responses including thrombocytosis, leukocytosis, or neutrophilia have gained attention as prognostic indicators in patients with various solid malignancies.current study, we aimed to investigate the clinical implications and underlying biological mechanism of the systemic inflammatory response in endometrial cancer. Clinical data from 900 patients with endometrial cancer were analyzed to investigate the association between pretreatment leukocytosis, thrombocytosis, and treatment outcome. Clinical samples, endometrial cancer cell lines, and a mouse model of endometrial cancer were used to examine the mechanisms responsible for systemic inflammatory response in endometrial cancer, focusing on the role of tumor-derived granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) and MDSCs. Then, we showed that pretreatment concurrent leukocytosis and thrombocytosis is associated with significantly shorter survival and decreased chemosensitivity among patients with endometrial cancer. In vitro and in vivo experiments revealed that tumor-derived G-CSF and G-CSF-mediated IL-6 production from the tumor microenvironment are involved in the development of leukocytosis and thrombocytosis in patients with endometrial cancer. Moreover, increased tumor-infiltrating MDSCs induced by tumor-derived G-CSF, MDSC-mediated T cell suppression, and MDSC-mediated cancer stem cell induction are responsible for progression and chemoresistance in this type of endometrial cancer. MDSC depletion using an anti-Gr-1 neutralizing antibody or inhibition of MDSC activity by celecoxib inhibited tumor growth and enhanced chemosensitivity in endometrial cancer displaying concurrent leukocytosis and thrombocytosis. In conclusion, Pretreatment concurrent leukocytosis and thrombocytosis are associated with significantly shorter survival and decreased chemosensitivity among patients with endometrial cancer. Combining MDSC-targeting treatments with current standard chemotherapies might have therapeutic efficacy for these patients.
