The dynamic roles of macrophages extracellular traps (METs) in immune regulation.
Review in Archives of pharmacal research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
Macrophages are crucial to innate immunity, eliminating pathogens and damaged tissues through phagocytosis and modulating immune responses. Recently, macrophage extracellular traps (METs) have been identified as chromatin-based structures composed of DNA and various immune-related proteins. While METs play a defensive role in trapping and neutralizing pathogens, they are also implicated in disease pathology, contributing to chronic inflammation, tissue damage, and immune dysregulation. The precise mechanisms regulating MET formation are still under investigation, but emerging evidence indicates the involvement of various regulatory factors. Dysregulated MET activity has been associated with various diseases, including autoimmune disorders, cancer, and neurological conditions. A deeper understanding of MET mechanisms and their pathological impact may offer novel therapeutic strategies. Given the limited number of reviews and articles on METs, this review provides valuable insights into MET formation, regulatory pathways, and their role in disease progression.
