Eosinophil extracellular traps: heterogeneity of their stimuli, components, and functions.
Review in Trends in cell biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Eosinophils participate in immune regulation through their granule proteins and cytokines. Recent studies demonstrate eosinophil functional versatility through the mechanism of eosinophil extracellular traps (EETs). EET formation occurs via suicidal eosinophil extracellular trap cell death (EETosis) and vital EET release. EETs contain chromatin- or mitochondrial-derived DNA, granule proteins, nuclear proteins, and cytosolic components that vary depending on the type and intensity of stimuli. Synthetic compounds, pathogenic microorganisms, endogenous molecules, and co-stimulatory factors stimulate EET formation via diverse signaling pathways through receptors that rely on or operate independently of NADPH oxidase-mediated reactive oxygen species production and peptidylarginine deiminase-4-dependent histone modification. Necroptosis, pyroptosis, and autophagy pathways also contribute to EET biogenesis and subset heterogeneity. Here, we summarize EET formation, compositional profile, and functional heterogeneity across disease states, as well as the future potential for novel immune intervention.
