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

The DNA component of neutrophil extracellular traps (NET-DNA) is associated with cancer metastasis and chemotherapy resistance. However, recent studies have suggested that NET-DNA contributes to the activation of dendritic cells (DCs) and promotes the innate immune response to anticancer immunity. Therefore, exploring therapeutic approaches to inhibit NET-mediated tumor progression while maintaining antitumor immunity is essential. Our groups recently identified CCDC25 as a specific NET-DNA sensor on the cytoplasmic membrane of cancer cells that promotes cancer metastasis. In this study, we performed small-molecule compound screening and revealed that mitoxantrone (MTO) could block the interaction between NET-DNA and CCDC25. Molecular docking results indicated that MTO competed with NET-DNA by binding with the amino acid residues Tyr
