Role of Neutrophils in Anti-Tumor Activity: Characteristics and Mechanisms of Action.
Review in Cancers, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 papers.
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
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
As one of the leading components in the immune system, neutrophils in the tumor microenvironment (TME) have received considerable attention in recent years. The tumor-killing effects of neutrophils in a variety of tumors have been reported. However, the functions of neutrophils in tumors remain to be completely elucidated, and both anti-tumor and tumor-promotion activities have been reported. This review focuses on the characteristics of neutrophils and their mechanisms of action in the TME, with an emphasis on their anti-tumor activity, including reactive oxygen species (ROS)-induced tumor killing, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs)-induced tumor killing, trogocytosis, cytotoxic enzymes, and trained immunity. Furthermore, the possible targets and methods of tumor treatment regimens for neutrophils are explored, with the aim of exploring the use of neutrophils in the future as a potential anti-tumor treatment strategy.
