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

purpose of reviewA breakdown of immune tolerance to self-antigens in a genetically predisposing background, precipitated by environmental triggers, contributes to the development of systemic autoimmune diseases. Renewed interest in the immunomodulatory capabilities of neutrophils in systemic autoimmunity has identified neutrophil extracellular trap (NET) formation as a distinguishing action of neutrophils in afflicted hosts. RECENT

findingsOxidation of nucleic acids and posttranslational modifications of proteins distinctly occur during NET formation and may promote enhanced immunogenicity. Various autoantibodies, immune complexes, and other inflammatory stimuli have been recently reported to promote NET formation in individuals with autoimmune diseases. Associations between level of NETosis and adverse outcomes in systemic autoimmune diseases, including thrombosis, adverse pregnancy outcomes, and renal disease, continue to be investigated. SUMMARY: Understanding the putative pathogenic role and sequelae of NETosis in rheumatic diseases is a major focus of ongoing research efforts. Mechanisms elucidated by these discoveries may provide novel therapeutic targets to inhibit NET formation and/or promote the clearance of immunogenic NET material.
