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

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a chronic pulmonary vascular disorder characterized by an increase in pulmonary vascular resistance and pulmonary arterial pressure. The detailed molecular mechanisms remain unclear. In recent decades, increasing evidence shows that altered immune microenvironment, comprised of immune cells, mesenchymal cells, extra-cellular matrix and signaling molecules, might induce the development of PH. Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) have been proposed over 30 years, and the functional importance of MDSCs in the immune system is appreciated recently. MDSCs are a heterogeneous group of cells that expand during cancer, chronic inflammation and infection, which have a remarkable ability to suppress T-cell responses and may exacerbate the development of diseases. Thus, targeting MDSCs has become a novel strategy to overcome immune evasion, especially in tumor immunotherapy. Nowadays, severe PH is accepted as a cancer-like disease, and MDSCs are closely related to the development and prognosis of PH. Here, we review the relationship between MDSCs and PH with respect to immune cells, cytokines, chemokines and metabolism, hoping that the key therapeutic targets of MDSCs can be identified in the treatment of PH, especially in severe PH.
