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

Endostatin is a potent endogenous inhibitor of angiogenesis that was recently shown to be stored in platelets and released in response to thrombin, but not ADP. In the present study, we have tested the hypothesis that thrombin-induced endostatin release from rat platelets is mediated via proteinase-activated receptor-4 (PAR4). Immunoprecipitation and Western blotting confirmed that endostatin is contained within rat platelets. Aggregation and release of endostatin could be elicited by thrombin (0.5 - 1.0 U ml(-1)) or by specific PAR4 agonist (AYPGKF-NH(2); AY-NH(2); 15 - 50 microM). Significant release of endostatin could be induced by a dose of thrombin below that necessary for induction of aggregation. An adenosine diphosphate (ADP) scavenger, apyrase, inhibited the platelet aggregation induced by thrombin, but not the release of endostatin. In contrast, a selective PAR4 antagonist (trans-cinnamoyl-YPGKF-NH(2); tcY-NH(2)) prevented endostatin release and aggregation induced by thrombin or by AY-NH(2). We conclude that thrombin-induced endostatin release from rat platelets is PAR4-mediated via an ADP-independent mechanism that can occur independently of platelet aggregation.
