Reduction of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in prostate cancer murine models and patients following white button mushroom treatment.
Article in Clinical and translational medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT04519879 (A Randomized Phase 2 Trial of White Button Mushroom Supplement in Patients With Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer Following Local Therapy and in Therapy Na?ve Patients With Favorable Risk Prostate Cancer Undergoing Active Surveillance), which is not on this map.

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

Abstract
backgroundIn a previously reported Phase I trial, we observed therapy-associated declines in circulating myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) with the administration of white button mushroom (WBM) tablets in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. These observations led us to hypothesise that WBM could mitigate PCa progression by suppressing MDSCs.
methodsWe performed bidirectional translational research to examine the immunomodulatory effects of WBM consumption in both syngeneic murine PCa models and patients with PCa participating in an ongoing randomised Phase II trial (NCT04519879).
resultsIn murine models, WBM treatment significantly suppressed tumour growth with a reduction in both the number and function of MDSCs, which in turn promoted antitumour immune responses mediated by T cells and natural killer (NK) cells. In patients, after consumption of WBM tablets for 3 months, we observed a decline in circulating polymorphonuclear MDSCs (PMN-MDSCs), along with an increase in cytotoxic CD8
conclusionOur results from PCa murine models and patients provide mechanistic insights into the immunomodulatory effects of WBM and provide a scientific foundation for WBM as a nutraceutical intervention to delay or prevent PCa progression. HIGHLIGHTS: White button mushroom (WBM) treatment resulted in a reduction in pro-tumoural MDSCs, notably polymorphonuclear MDSCs (PMN-MDSCs), along with activation of anti-tumoural T and NK cells. Human single immune cell gene expression profiling shed light on the molecular alterations induced by WBM, specifically on PMN-MDSCs. A proof-of-concept study combining WBM with PD-1 blockade in murine models revealed an additive effect on tumour regression and survival outcomes, highlighting the clinical relevance of WBM in cancer management.
