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

Neutrophil Extracellular Traps (NETs) are complexes containing DNA fibrils and antimicrobial peptides that are released by neutrophils in response to pathogen stimulation. At the time of their discovery, the neutrophil extracellular trap contained active substances such as Neutrophil Elastase (NE) and myeloperoxidase (MPO). Although NETs were initially thought to be a means for the innate immune system to fight microbial invasion, now they have been observed to have a broader impact throughout the body. In recent studies, NETs have been linked to several neurological disorders and have been found to have varying roles in a number of diseases. In addition to their role in thrombosis, NETs have been identified in various autoimmune diseases. NETs play a significant role in the body when they are produced at the correct time and place; however, when the generation and removal of NETs are out of equilibrium, there can be important implications for human health. Here, the impact of NETs is reviewed in various neurological disorders and their potential clinical applications.
