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

We characterized a consanguineous Turkish family suffering from von Willebrand disease (VWD) with significant mucocutaneous and joint bleeding. The relative reduction of large plasma von Willebrand factor (VWF) multimers and the absent VWF triplet structure was consistent with type 2A (phenotype IIC) VWD. Surprisingly, platelet VWF was completely deficient of multimers beyond the VWF protomer, suggesting defective alpha-granular storage of larger multimers. Patients were nearly unresponsive to desmopressin acetate, consistent with a lack of regulated VWF release from endothelial cell Weibel-Palade bodies, suggesting defective storage also in endothelial cells. We identified an N528S homozygous mutation in the VWF propeptide D2 domain, predicting the introduction of an additional N-glycosylation site at amino acid 526 in close vicinity to a "CGLC" disulphide isomerase consensus sequence. Expression studies in mammalian cells demonstrated that N528S-VWF was neither normally multimerized nor trafficked to storage granules. However, propeptide containing the N528S mutation trafficked normally to storage granules. Our data indicate that the patients' phenotype is the result of defective multimerization, storage, and secretion. In addition, we have identified a potentially novel pathogenic mechanism of VWD, namely a transportation and storage defect of mature VWF due to defective interaction with its transporter, the mutant propeptide.
