Platelet CD62 expression and PDGFAB secretion in patients undergoing PTCA and treatment with abciximab.
Article in British journal of clinical pharmacology, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
aimsTo investigate a correlation of the platelet activation marker CD62 and secretion of the growth factor PDGF from platelets in coronary patients under therapy with the GPIIb/IIIa-inhibitor abciximab.
methodsFlow cytometric assessment of fibrinogen binding (GPIIb/IIIa-binding site) and CD62 expression, as well as PDGF release of human platelets (immunoassay) and platelet aggregation with 20 microM ADP and 2 microg ml(-1) collagen were evaluated in nine patients with stable coronary artery disease. Patients were undergoing elective balloon angioplasty and were treated with aspirin (100 mg day(-1)), heparin (ACT < 220 s) and abciximab (bolus and infusion over 12 h). Blood samples were obtained before initiation of abciximab therapy (under aspirin and heparin) (I), 3 h after angioplasty under abciximab (II) and 12 h after termination of abciximab infusion (III).
resultsCompared with sample I before abciximab therapy, fibrinogen binding was reduced to 37% (+/- 34 s.d., P < 0.05) (II) and 55% (+/- 40 s.d., P < 0.05) (III). Reduced fibrinogen binding also led to a significant reduction of the aggregation response to ADP (down to 37% +/- 20) and collagen (down to 0%). Mean fluorescence intensity of CD62-expression was 78 units (+/- 20 s.d.) (I), 72 units (+/- 14 s.d.) (II) and 64 units (+/- 12 s.d., P < 0.05) (III). PDGF release from isolated, washed platelets was 99 (+/- 33 s.d.) ng/10(9) platelets at (I), 82 (+/- 31 s.d.) ng/10(9) platelets and 96 (+/- 30 s.d.) ng/10(9) platelets.
conclusionsThe results indicate that despite a strong reduction of GPIIb/IIIa-binding and platelet aggregation, CD62 as a marker of platelet secretion and the secretion product PDGF were only slightly reduced under abciximab treatment. No direct correlation between CD62 expression and PDGF release could be demonstrated.
