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

Platelets contain an invaginated, tubular membranous structure called the surface-connected open canalicular system (SCCS or OCS), which is contiguous with the plasma membrane and serves as a site for granule fusion and as a reservoir of membrane for platelet spreading. According to ultrastructural studies, platelets from some species lack OCS. In an attempt to correlate biochemical and functional attributes with the presence of an OCS, platelets from human, mouse and dog (OCS(+)), and from cow, camel and horse (OCS(-)) were analysed for differential protein expression and aggregation in response to thrombin. Among the 18 different cytoskeletal and regulatory proteins examined, five (Rac1, RhoA, Ras, calmodulin and Src) were expressed at higher levels in OCS(+) platelets (p < 0.05). Given the role of Arf6 in the formation of tubular invaginations in nucleated cells, the levels of Arf6-GTP were analysed in OCS(+) and OCS(-) platelets. There was no significant correlation between the presence of OCS and total Arf6 or Arf6-GTP levels. Comparison of platelet aggregation between different species suggests that OCS(-) platelets have delayed responses. This comparison of platelets from six different species, which differ in their OCS, shows the differential expression of known signaling components and foreshadows future studies focusing on OCS formation and function.
