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), web-like complex structures secreted by neutrophils, have emerged as key players in the modulation of immune responses and the immunopathogenesis of immune disorders. Initially described for their antimicrobial function, NETs now play a part in the fundamental processes of cancer biology, including cancer initiation, metastatic dissemination, and immune evasion strategies. NETs hijack anti-tumor immunity by entrapping circulating cancer cells, fostering the growth of tumors, and reorganizing the tumor microenvironment such that it is pro-malignancy. Emerging evidence emphasizes the role of NETosis coupled with non-coding RNAs-long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs)-as key regulators of gene expression and controllers of processes vital for cancer growth, such as immune response and programmed cell death processes like apoptosis, necroptosis, pyroptosis, and ferroptosis. Aberrantly expressed non-coding RNAs have been attributed to immune dysregulation and excessive NET production, promoting tumor growth. NETs are also associated with a myriad of pathological conditions, such as autoimmune disorders, cystic fibrosis, sepsis, and thrombotic disorders. New therapeutic approaches-such as DNase therapy and PAD4 inhibitors-target NET production and their degradation to modify immune function and the efficiency of immunotherapies. Further clarification of the intricate interactions of NETosis, lncRNAs, and miRNAs has the potential to establish new strategies for the suppression of the growth of tumors and preventing immune evasion. This review seeks to elucidate the interactions between NETosis and the regulatory networks involving non-coding RNAs that significantly contribute to the immunopathogenesis of cancer.
