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

Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have garnered attention for their dual role in host defense and tumor promotion. With their involvement documented across a spectrum of tumors, their influence on the progression of cholangiocarcinoma (CCA) is of paramount interest. We employed immunohistochemistry and immunofluorescence to detect NET deposition in CCA tissues. Through in vitro and in vivo investigation, including CCA organoid and transposon-based models in PAD4 KO mice, we explored the effects of NETs on cell proliferation and metastasis. Molecular insights were gained through RNA sequencing, enzyme linked immunosorbent assay, and chromatin immunoprecipitation. Elevated intratumoral NET deposition within CCA tissues was associated with poor survival. The influence of NETs on CCA proliferation, migration and invasion was primarily mediated by NET-DNA. RNA sequencing unveiled the activation of the NFκB signaling pathway due to NET-DNA stimulation. NET-DNA pull-down assay coupled with mass spectrometry revealed the interaction between NET-DNA and αV integrin (ITGAV), culmination in the activation of the NFκB pathway. Furthermore, NET-DNA directly upregulated the expression of VEGF-A in cancer cells. The study unequivocally establishes NETs as facilitators of CCA progression, orchestrating proliferation, metastasis, and angiogenesis through ITGAV/NFκB pathway activation. This novel insight positions NETs as prospective therapeutic targets for managing CCA patients. By implementing a variety of methodologies and drawing intricate connections between NETs, DNA interactions, and signaling pathways, this research expands our comprehension of the complex interplay between the immune system and cancer progression, offering promising avenues for intervention.
