Protective effects of neutrophil serine protease inhibition against ischemia-reperfusion injury in lung or heart transplantation.
Review in The FEBS journal, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Transplanted organs are inevitably exposed to ischemia-reperfusion (IR) injury, which is known to cause graft dysfunction. Functional and structural changes that follow IR tissue injury are mediated by neutrophils through the production of oxygen-derived free radicals, as well as from degranulation which entails the release of proteases and other pro-inflammatory mediators. Neutrophil serine proteases (NSPs) are believed to be the principal triggers of post-ischemic reperfusion damage. Extended preservation times for the transplanted donor organ correlate with heightened occurrences of vascular damage and graft dysfunction. Preservation with α1-antitrypsin, an endogenous inhibitor of NSPs, improves primary graft function after lung or heart transplantation. Furthermore, pre-operative pharmacological targeting of NSP activation in the recipient using chemical inhibitors suppresses neutrophilic inflammation in transplanted organs. Hence, effective control of NSPs in the graft and recipient is a promising strategy to prevent IR injury. In this review, we describe the pathological functions of NSPs in IR injury and discuss their pharmacological inhibition to prevent primary graft dysfunction in lung or heart transplantation.
