Neutrophil extracellular traps promote metastasis in gastric cancer patients with postoperative abdominal infectious complications.
Article in Nature communications, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 162 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Postoperative abdominal infectious complication (AIC) is associated with metastasis in locally advanced gastric cancer (GC) patients after radical gastrectomy. However, the underlying mechanism remains unclear. Herein, we report that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), the DNA meshes released by neutrophils in response to infection, could promote GC cells proliferation, invasion, migration and epithelial-mesenchymal transition dependent on TGF-β signaling. Then we model nude mice with cecal puncture without ligation to simulate postoperative AIC and find that NETs in peripheral blood and ascites fluid facilitate GC cells extravasation and implantation into liver and peritoneum for proliferation and metastasis. Notably, TGF-β signaling inhibitor LY 2157299 could effectively impede liver and peritoneal metastasis but not concurrently aggravate sepsis in those AIC-bearing nude mice. These findings implicate that targeting downstream effectors of NETs such as TGF-β signaling might provide potential therapeutic prospect to reduce the risk of GC metastasis.
