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

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is the second-leading cause of cancer-associated mortality. Neutrophil extracellular trap formation (i.e., NETosis) is a crucial process in forming VTE in cancer patients. Nevertheless, how cancer cells contribute to NETosis remains unclear. This study investigated the potential activation effects of cancer cell-derived extracellular vesicles (CC-EVs) on neutrophils. Both small and large EVs (sEVs and lEVs) released from cancer cells are found to significantly induce NETosis in neutrophil-like HL-60 (dHL-60) cells. Following an in-depth exploration of EV-induced NETosis, the specific molecular pathways involved in this biological process are elucidated. CYBA enriched in CC-lEVs is delivered to dHL-60, leading to a rapid increase in intracellular ROS levels and upregulation of citH3 expression. This cascade resulted in decondensed chromatin release and subsequent NETosis along with elevated MPO-DNA levels. Injection of CC-lEVs into mice caused more pronounced VTE, which is accompanied by increased peripheral blood levels of the MPO-DNA and thrombin-antithrombin complex. Inhibiting CYBA expression or ROS generation prevented NETosis in vitro and significantly reduced VTE in vivo. In conclusion, CC-lEVs induce NETosis through the CYBA-ROS-citH3 pathway and increase VTE risk. Targeting CYBA expression or ROS production can provide novel strategies for preventing and treating VTE in high-risk cancer patients.
