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

Numerous immunosuppressive cells such as myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) and inhibitory cytokines identified in melanoma microenvironment have the important role in immune escape. Therefore, in this study we analyzed monocytic (m)MDSCs in peripheral blood of metastatic melanoma (MM) patients. In peripheral blood of 35 MM patients and 30 healthy controls we analyzed percentage of CD14 + HLA-DR- mMDSCs in monocyte gate and the mean fluorescence intensity of Foxp3 in CD25 + CD4 + regulatory T cells by Flow cytometry. Serum levels of transforming growth factor beta, interferon-gamma, interleukin (IL)-6, IL-8, IL-10 are measured by ELISA assays. In this study MM patients have significantly higher percentage of CD14 + HLA-DR- mMDSCs, as well as increased the baseline mMDSC/PBMC subset (NK, T, B cells, monocytes) ratio. Although there is no significant difference in the percentage of mMDSCs between groups of MM patients with different localization of distant metastasis, patients with elevated serum lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) have statistically significant higher percentage of these cells compared to LDH negative patients. Furthermore, in MM patients there is statistically significant positive correlation between values of IL-10 and the percentage of mMDSCs, only. Therefore, therapeutics that target circulating mMDSCs and IL-10 may have a big importance in the improvement of antitumor immunity in MM patients.
