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

Sulfatase 2 (SULF2) affects the occurrence and development of cancer by regulating HSPG-binding factors. However, the mechanism of SULF2 in bladder cancer (BCa) is unknown. To determine this, we analyzed the RNA sequencing of 90 patients with BCa. The results showed that the expression of SULF2 was closely related to the prognosis of BCa. Moreover, in vivo and in vitro experiments revealed that SULF2 promotes tumor proliferation and invasion. Furthermore, using a mouse orthotopic BCa model and flow cytometric analysis, we identified that SULF2 affects the polarization of macrophages. Mechanism studies clarified that SULF2 promoted the release of HSPG-binding factors, such as IL-8, in the microenvironment through β-catenin. Meanwhile, IL-8 activated the JAK2/STAT3 pathway of macrophages to promote the expression of CD163 and CD206, thereby regulating the polarization of macrophages to the M2-type. Conclusively, these results indicate that SULF2 plays an important role in regulating the microenvironment of BCa and promotes the polarization of macrophages to the M2-type by secreting IL-8, which further deepens the malignant progression of BCa.
