Neutrophil extracellular traps promote angiogenesis in gastric 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
Although antiangiogenic therapy has been used in gastric cancer, disease progression due to drug resistance remains common. Neutrophils play an important role in the occurrence and progression of cancer via neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). However, few studies have investigated angiogenic regulation in gastric cancer. We aimed to determine the role of NETs in promoting angiogenesis in gastric cancer. Multiple immunohistochemical staining was used to analyze the spatial distribution of NETs and microvessels in patient tissue samples. A mouse subcutaneous tumor model was established to determine the effect of NETs on tumor growth, and changes in microvessel density were observed via immunohistochemical staining. We screened differentially expressed proteins in HUVECs stimulated by NETs via proteomics. Cell Counting Kit-8, EdU labeling, and tubule formation assays were used to verify the effect of NETs on HUVEC proliferation, migration, and tubule formation. Blocking NETs, which was related to decreased microvessel density, significantly inhibited tumor growth in the murine subcutaneous tumor model. Compared with those of the control group, tumor volume and mass among mice in the inhibition group decreased by 61.3% and 77.9%, respectively. The NET-DNA receptor CCDC25 was expressed in HUVECs, providing a platform for NETs to promote HUVEC proliferation, migration, and tubulation. In an in vitro rat aortic explant model, NETs induced HUVEC proliferation, survival, and chemotaxis, which were not significantly different from those observed in the VEGF stimulation group. Our results confirm that NETs promote angiogenesis in gastric cancer, providing a theoretical basis for identifying new anti-vascular therapeutic targets. Video Abstract.
