Low-Density Neutrophils Contribute to Subclinical Inflammation in Patients with Type 2 Diabetes.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) is characterized by low-grade inflammation. Low-density neutrophils (LDNs) represent normally less than 2% of total neutrophils but increase in multiple pathologies, releasing inflammatory cytokines and neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). We assessed the count and role of high-density neutrophils (HDNs), LDNs, and NET-related activities in patients with T2D. HDNs and LDNs were purified by fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS) and counted by flow cytometry. Circulating inflammatory and NETs biomarkers were measured by ELISA (Enzyme Linked Immunosorbent Assay). NET formation was quantified by confocal microscopy. Neutrophil adhesion onto a human extracellular matrix (hECM) was assessed by optical microscopy. We recruited 22 healthy volunteers (HVs) and 18 patients with T2D. LDN counts in patients with diabetes were significantly higher (160%), along with circulating NETs biomarkers (citrullinated H3 histone (H3Cit), myeloperoxidase (MPO), and MPO-DNA (137%, 175%, and 69%, respectively) versus HV. Circulating interleukins (IL-6 and IL-8) and C-Reactive Protein (CRP) were significantly increased by 117%, 171%, and 79%, respectively, in patients compared to HVs. Isolated LDNs from patients expressed more H3Cit, MPO, and NETs, formed more NETs, and adhered more on hECM compared to LDNs from HVs. Patients with T2D present higher levels of circulating LDN- and NET-related biomarkers and associated pro-inflammatory activities.
