Multidisciplinary Treatment for Cecal Cancer and Metachronous Liver Metastases in a Patient with Primary Autoimmune Neutropenia.
Article in Surgical case reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
introductionAutoimmune neutropenia (AIN) is a rare disease that causes neutropenia due to autoantibodies directed against neutrophils. Neutropenia is associated with an increased risk of infection, such as surgical site infection or febrile neutropenia. To our knowledge, however, there are few reports of surgical or neoadjuvant chemotherapeutic treatments for colorectal cancer with AIN. Herein, we present a case with AIN undergoing multidisciplinary treatment of cecal cancer and metachronous liver metastases. CASE PRESENTATION: A 74-year-old woman with AIN presented to our hospital with epigastric pain lasting for 3 weeks. Abdominal CT showed obstructive cecal cancer and swollen regional lymph nodes. She had been under observation for primary AIN in the hematology department in our institution. The blood test revealed white blood cell count of 2300/μL, neutrophil count of 19.4%, and thus absolute neutrophil count of 446/μL. Granulocyte-colony stimulating factor (G-CSF; filgrastim 75 μg) was administered to lower the risk of infectious complications before surgery. After the absolute neutrophil count levels increased sufficiently, laparoscopic ileocecal resection was performed. Pathological findings showed T3N1aM0, pStage IIIB (UICC 8th edition), HER2 score 0, and a RAS codon 12S mutation. Six months after curative surgery, multiple liver metastases appeared. A total of 8 cycles of mFOLFOX6 with bevacizumab, combined with G-CSF (filgrastim 75 μg) were administered. After preoperative chemotherapy, the patient underwent right anterior sectionectomy and partial resection of segment 6. She was uneventful in the postoperative course. Throughout the perioperative period and chemotherapy, no infectious complications were observed.
conclusionsThe administration of G-CSF to prevent neutropenia allowed the patient with AIN to safely undergo multidisciplinary treatment.
