The roles of neutrophils in cardiovascular diseases.
Review in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 immune response plays a vital role in the development of cardiovascular diseases (CVDs). As a crucial component of the innate immune system, neutrophils are involved in the initial inflammatory response following cardiovascular injury, thereby inducing subsequent damage and promoting recovery. Neutrophils exert their functional effects in tissues through various mechanisms, including activation and the formation of neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs). Once activated, neutrophils are recruited to the site of injury, where they release inflammatory mediators and cytokines. This study discusses the main mechanisms associated with neutrophil activity and proposes potential new therapeutic targets. In this review, we systematically summarize the diverse phenotypes of neutrophils in disease regulatory mechanisms, different modes of cell death, and focus on the relevance of neutrophils to various CVDs, including atherosclerosis, acute coronary syndrome, myocardial ischemia/reperfusion injury, hypertension, atrial fibrillation, heart failure, and viral myocarditis. Finally, we also emphasize the preclinical/clinical translational significance of neutrophil-targeted strategies.
