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

Oxaliplatin is an antineoplastic agent frequently used in the treatment of gastrointestinal tumors. However, it causes dose-limiting sensorimotor neuropathy, referred to as oxaliplatin-induced peripheral neuropathy (OIPN), for which there is no effective treatment. Here, we report that the elevation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NET) is a pathologic change common to both cancer patients treated with oxaliplatin and a murine model of OIPN. Mechanistically, we found that NETs trigger NLR family pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome activation and the subsequent release of IL18 by macrophages, resulting in mechanical hyperalgesia. In NLRP3-deficient mice, the mechanical hyperalgesia characteristic of OIPN in our model was reduced. In addition, in the murine model, treatment with the IL18 decoy receptor IL18BP prevented the development of OIPN. We further showed that eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) reduced NET formation by suppressing the LPS-TLR4-JNK pathway and thereby abolished NLRP3 inflammasome activation and the subsequent secretion of IL18, which markedly prevented oxaliplatin-induced mechanical hyperalgesia in mice. These results identify a role for NET-triggered NLRP3 activation and IL18 release in the development of OIPN and suggest that utilizing IL18BP and EPA could be effective treatments for OIPN.
