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.

Abstract

Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are defined as negative regulators that suppress the immune response through a variety of mechanisms, which usually cluster in cancer, inflammation, and autoimmune diseases. This study aims to investigate the correlation between M-MDSCs and the clinical features of diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) patients, as well as the possible accumulation mechanism of M-MDSCs. The level of M-MDSCs is significantly increased in newly diagnosed and relapsed DLBCL patients. Regarding newly diagnosed DLBCL patients, the frequency of M-MDSCs is positively correlated with tumor progression and negatively correlated with overall survival (OS). More importantly, the level of M-MDSCs can be defined as a biomarker for a poor prognosis in DLBCL patients. Additionally, interleukin-35 (IL-35) mediates the accumulation of M-MDSCs in DLBCL patients. Anti-IL-35 treatment significantly reduces levels of M-MDSCs in Ly8 tumor-bearing mice. Thus, M-MDSCs are involved in the pathological process of DLBCL. Targeting M-MDSCs may be a promising therapeutic strategy for the treatment of DLBCL patients.
