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

backgroundNeuro-hormonal and hemostatic mechanisms are important in a wide range of psychological and cardiovascular diseases. The use of psychoactive drugs in mental illnesses is often involved with hematologic side effects including impaired platelet function. Subsequently, the risk for the development of cardiovascular diseases may be higher in these patients. Interestingly, platelets that play a key role in cardiovascular complications contain quite a number of neuronal receptors which are involved in psychotic disorders. It has been widely discussed whether psychoactive drugs used in the therapy of psychotic disorders have a direct effect on platelet function and whether the effects are transmitted through the corresponding receptors on the platelet surface. MATERIAL AND

methodsIn this study, we tested several psychoactive drugs regarding their impact on whole blood platelet aggregation.

resultsAntidopaminergics preferentially inhibited ADP-induced aggregation whereas anticholinergics mainly inhibited U46619-induced aggregation. Because platelets respond selectively to different psychoactive drugs we assume that corresponding receptors have a functional aspect on platelets and that receptor blockade affects platelet aggregation through different mechanisms.

conclusionThe knowledge about the effects of psychoactive drugs on platelet function may help to characterize neuronal receptors on platelets and may contribute to a better understanding of altered platelet function during therapy with psychoactive drugs.
