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) are intricate, web-like formations composed of DNA, histones, and antimicrobial proteins, released by neutrophils. These structures participate in a wide array of physiological and pathological activities, including immune rheumatic diseases and damage to target organs. Recently, the connection between NETs and cancer has garnered significant attention. Within the tumor microenvironment and metabolism, NETs exhibit multifaceted roles, such as promoting the proliferation and migration of tumor cells, influencing redox balance, triggering angiogenesis, and driving metabolic reprogramming. This review offers a comprehensive analysis of the link between NETs and tumor metabolism, emphasizing areas that remain underexplored. These include the interaction of NETs with tumor mitochondria, their effect on redox states within tumors, their involvement in metabolic reprogramming, and their contribution to angiogenesis in tumors. Such insights lay a theoretical foundation for a deeper understanding of the role of NETs in cancer development. Moreover, the review also delves into potential therapeutic strategies that target NETs and suggests future research directions, offering new perspectives on the treatment of cancer and other related diseases.
