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

Healthy adipose tissue contains a wide variety of innate and adaptive immune cells, including macrophages, dendritic cells, mast cells, eosinophils, neutrophils, and lymphocytes. Numerous signaling molecules in the adipose microenvironment can positively or negatively modulate angiogenic processes, regulate the interaction between the vascular system and adipocytes, and participate in tumor progression. Mast cells are involved in the new formation or metabolism of fat, are present in abundant quantities in fatty tissue, among fat cells, and a number of mediators released from mast cells play a role in adipogenesis. Moreover, mast cells produce several pro-angiogenic factors and are involved in tumor angiogenesis. In this context, the angiogenic effect might be amplified when the adipocytes and mast cells act in concert, and treatment of adipose tissue- and mast cell-associated cancers with anti-angiogenic drugs may represent an alternative or adjuvant strategy for the treatment of these tumors.
