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

Although fibrin forms the core matrix of thrombi, their structure depends also on the cellular elements embedded in its meshwork. Platelets are essential in the initial stages of thrombus formation, because they adhere and aggregate at sites of blood vessel wall injury and then serve as a surface for coagulation reactions, the overall rate of which determines the final structure of fibrin. In addition, platelets affect fibrinolysis through their proteins and phospholipids, which modulate plasmin activity. Leukocytes form mixed aggregates with platelets and thus influence the structure of thrombi. After activation they secrete different proteases (elastase, cathepsin G, matrix metalloproteinases) that enhance the von Willebrand factor-dependent platelet adhesion. Leukocyte-derived enzymes, first of all elastase, effect fibrinolysis by direct digestion of fibrin or indirectly modulate it by partial degradation of zymogens and inhibitors of coagulation and fibrinolytic proteases.
