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) have received significant attention in recent years for their role in both the immune response and the vascular damage associated with inflammation. Platelets have been described as critical components of NETs since the initial description of this physio-pathological response of neutrophils. Platelets have been shown to play a dual role as responders and also as stimulators of NETs. The direct interaction with DNA leads to the entrapment of platelets into NETs, a phenomenon that significantly contributes to the thrombotic complications of inflammation and neutrophil activation, while the direct and paracrine stimulation of neutrophils by platelets has been shown to initiate the process of NET formation. In this review, we provide a comprehensive description of our current understanding of the molecular mechanisms underlying the entrapping of platelets into NETs and, in parallel, the platelet-driven cellular responses promoting NET formation. We then illustrate established examples of the contribution of NETs to vascular pathologies, describe the important questions that remain to be answered regarding the contribution of platelets to NET formation and NET-dependent cardiovascular complication, and highlight the fundamental steps taken towards the application of our understanding of platelets' contribution to NETs for the development of novel cardiovascular therapies.
