A Web of Challenges: The Therapeutic Struggle to Target NETs in Disease.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 19 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
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of many debilitating conditions, including autoimmune diseases, inflammatory diseases, and cancer. As a result, NET-targeted therapies have been investigated in search of effective treatment strategies. Despite promising preclinical findings, clinical translation of NET inhibitors has had limited success. These preclinical studies have faced limitations such as mouse models that inaccurately reflect human disease dynamics, as well as by the complexity of NETs-including their diverse morphology and convoluted pathways to formation relative to pathology. The NET inhibitors themselves have several limitations, including off-target effects and bioavailability issues. The challenges facing NET-targeted therapies reported here may explain what is required to go from bench to bedside successfully.
