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

Tumor-associated macrophages contribute to cell growth, development, and metastasis in various cancers. However, the underlying mechanisms of M2 macrophage that modulate the progression of gastric cancer (GC) remain largely unknown. In this study, we detected the ratio of macrophages in GC tissues and found that the proportion of M2 macrophages was increased in GC tissues. We then co-cultured GC cells with M1 and M2 macrophages, respectively, and then assessed cell proliferation and tumorigenicity of GC cells by MTT and colony formation assay. The results indicated that M2 macrophages promoted the proliferation of GC cells, but M1 not. Besides, GW4869, an exosomes inhibitor, reduced the effects induced by M2 macrophage. Then, we isolated and identified exosomes derived from M1 and M2 macrophage, and confirmed that the exosomes could be taken up by GC cells. We demonstrated that M2 macrophage-exosomes could induce the proliferation and tumorigenesis
