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

In ANCA-associated vasculitis the activation of primed leucocytes by autoantibodies with subsequent release of proteases such as myeloperoxidase (MPO), proteinase 3 (PR3) and elastase is thought to play an important pathogenetic role. Whether these proteases contribute to the vascular lesions by stimulating the procoagulant activity of these cells is unknown. Tissue factor (TF) expression and activity were investigated in human umbilical vein endothelial cells after stimulation with MPO, PR3 and elastase. TF activity was measured using a one-stage clotting assay. Polyclonal antibodies to TF were used to prove specificity. TF mRNA was detected by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. PR3 and elastase led to a significant increase in TF mRNA expression and increased activity. The stimulation was not mediated by IL-1. The stimulatory effect of PR3 did not depend on its proteolytic activity (no inhibition by alpha-1-antitrypsin), whereas the effect of elastase was blocked by alpha-1-antitrypsin. MPO had no effect on TF activity. These results show that PR3 and elastase stimulate TF expression in human endothelial cells. In ANCA-associated vasculitis the increased release of proteases may contribute to the development of microthrombi and consecutive necrosis.
