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

The interaction between PAF and human platelet membranes was investigated by measuring the steadystate fluorescence anisotropy and fluorescence decay of 1 (4-trimethylammoniumphenyl)-6-phenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (TMA-DPH) incorporated in platelet plasma membranes. PAF induced a time-limited and significant increase of the lipid order in the exterior part of the membrane and a decrease in membrane heterogeneity. These changes were blocked in the presence of the PAF antagonists, L-659,989 and 1-O-hexadecyl-2-acetyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho(N,N,N-trimethyl)hexanolamine.H(2)O. These results indicate that the observed changes in the physico-chemical properties of the membrane are attributed to the PAF-receptor interaction and signal transduction.
