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

Hypoxia is a main feature of most solid tumors, but how melanoma cells under hypoxic conditions exploit tumor microenvironment (TME) to facilitate tumor progression remains poorly understood. In this study, we found that hypoxic melanoma-derived small extracellular vesicles (sEVs) could improve the proangiogenic capability of cancer-associated fibroblasts (CAFs). This improvement was due to the activation of the IKK/IκB/NF-κB signaling pathway and upregulation of CXCL1 expression and secretion in CAFs. By proteomic analysis, we verified that hypoxia could promote enrichment of chaperone HSP90 and client protein phosphorylated IKKα/β (p-IKKα/β) in melanoma-derived sEVs. Delivery of the HSP90/p-IKKα/β complex by sEVs could activate the IKK/IκB/NF-κB/CXCL1 axis in CAFs and promote angiogenesis in vitro and in vivo. Taken together, these findings deepen the understanding of hypoxic response in melanoma progression and provide potential targets for melanoma treatment.
