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

The migration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) into the site of infection such as lungs during pneumonia is a canonical feature of innate immunity. Formation of neutrophil-derived extracellular traps (NETs), web-like strands of varying lengths comprising DNA, histones, elastase, and myeloperoxidase, is an important determinant of PMN-mediated innate immunity. NETs form in microvessels, entrap bacteria and effete matter, and dampen PMN-mediated inflammatory injury at specific sites. However, studies have largely focused on NET release secondary to lytic NETosis and lysis of PMN. Far less is known about vital NETosis occurring in the absence of PMN rupture. As vital NETosis is characterized by generation of anuclear PMN termed cytoplasts (PMN
