Interactions between neutrophil extracellular traps and macrophages: the key to inflammatory diseases.
Review in Frontiers in immunology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 7 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
Interactions between neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) and macrophages play a critical role in the initiation and progression of inflammatory diseases. NETs regulate macrophage polarization and function by releasing components such as DNA, histones, and granule proteins, as well as by activating multiple signaling pathways. In turn, macrophages modulate the formation and clearance of NETs through the secretion of cytokines and proteases. This bidirectional interaction forms a positive feedback loop in autoimmune diseases, cardiovascular diseases, and the tumor microenvironment, exacerbating inflammatory responses and tissue injury. Investigating the specific mechanisms underlying the NETs-macrophage interplay may provide novel targeted therapeutic strategies for inflammatory diseases. Therefore, this article systematically reviews the mechanisms of NETs-macrophage interactions and their pathological roles in various inflammatory diseases, aiming to offer a theoretical foundation and translational potential for future research.
