Diagnostic and prognostic role of circulating neutrophil extracellular trap markers and prekallikrein in patients with high-grade serous ovarian cancer.

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
Objective: Tumor-promoting inflammation is among the hallmarks of cancer. Prekallikrein is among the acute-phase reactants in the inflammatory response; moreover, neutrophils release nuclear contents into the extracellular space to create neutrophil extracellular traps (NET). We aimed to investigate the diagnostic and prognostic utilities of circulating plasma NET markers and prekallikrein for high-grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC). Methods: Circulating levels of three NET markers (histone-DNA complex, cell-free DNA, and neutrophil elastase) and prekallikrein were measured in 75 patients with HGSOC and 23 healthy controls. We used an area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC) analysis to investigate their diagnostic and prognostic utilities for HGSOC. Results: Compared with healthy controls, patients with HGSOC showed significantly higher levels of the three NET markers and prekallikrein. Patients with advanced-stage HGSOC showed significantly higher levels of the cell-free DNA (87.4 vs. 79.5 ng/ml; Conclusions: The levels of the three NET markers and prekallikrein might be novel diagnostic and prognostic markers for HGSOC.
