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

Pancreatic cancer (PC) remains a challenge to modern-day cancer therapeutics, with a dismal five-year survival rate of 12%. Due to the pancreas's location and desmoplasia surrounding it, patients receive late diagnoses and fail to respond to chemotherapy regimens. Tumor-promoting inflammation, one of the emerging hallmarks of cancer, contributes to tumor cells' survival and proliferation. This inflammation often results from infiltrating leukocytes and pro-inflammatory cytokines released into the tumor microenvironment (TME). Neutrophils, one of our body's most prominent immune cells, are essential in sustaining the inflammation observed in the TME. Recent reports demonstrate that neutrophils are complicit in cancer progression and metastasis. Additionally, abundant data suggest that tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs) could be considered as one of the emerging targets for multiple cancer types, including PC. This review will focus on the most recent updates regarding neutrophil recruitments and functions in the cancer microenvironment and the potential development of neutrophils-targeted putative therapeutic strategies in PC.
