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

backgroundUptake of apoptotic cells induces a tolerogenic phenotype in phagocytes and promotes peripheral tolerance. The highly conserved Annexin core domain, present in all members of the Annexin family, becomes exposed on the apoptotic cell-surface and triggers tolerogenic signalling in phagocytes via the Dectin-1 receptor. Consequently, Annexins exposed on tumour cells upon cell death are expected to induce tolerance towards tumour antigens, inhibiting tumour rejection.

methodsExpression analysis for all Annexin family members was conducted in cancer cell lines of diverse origins. Presentation of Annexins on the cell surface during apoptosis of cancer cell lines was investigated using surface washes and immunoblotting. Expression data from the GEO database was analysed to compare Annexin levels between malignant and healthy tissue.

resultsSix Annexins at least were consistently detected on mRNA and protein level for each investigated cell line. AnxA1, AnxA2 and AnxA5 constituted the major part of total Annexin expression. All expressed Annexins translocated to the cell surface upon apoptosis induction in all cell lines. Human expression data indicate a correlation between immune infiltration and overall Annexin expression in malignant compared to healthy tissue.

conclusionsThis study is the first comprehensive analysis of expression, distribution and presentation of Annexins in cancer.
