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 involvement of exosite I in α-thrombin (FIIa) binding to platelet glycoprotein Ibα (GPIbα), which could influence interactions with other substrates, remains undefined. To address the problem, we generated the GPIbα amino terminal domain (GPIbα-N) fully sulfated on three tyrosine residues and solved the structure of its complex with FIIa. We found that sulfotyrosine (Tys) 278 enhances the interaction mainly by establishing contacts with exosite I. We then evaluated how substituting tyrosine with phenylalanine, which cannot be sulfated, affects FIIa binding to soluble or surface-immobilized GPIbα-N. Mutating Tyr(276), which mostly contacts exosite II residues, markedly reduced FIIa interaction with both soluble and immobilized GPIbα-N; mutating Tyr(278) or Tyr(279), which mostly contact exosite I residues, reduced FIIa complexing in solution by 0-20% but affinity for immobilized GPIbα-N 2 to 6-fold, respectively. Moreover, three exosite I ligands--aptamer HD1, hirugen, and lepirudin--did not interfere with soluble FIIa complexing to GPIbα-N, excluding that their binding caused allosteric effects influencing the interaction; nonetheless, all impaired FIIa binding to immobilized GPIbα-N and platelet GPIb nearly as much as aptamer HD22 and heparin, both exosite II ligands. Bound HD1 and hirugen alter Trp(148) orientation in a loop near exosite I preventing contacts with the sulfate oxygen atoms of Tys(279). These results support a mechanism in which binding occurs when the two exosites of one FIIa molecule independently interact with two immobilized GPIbα molecules. Through exosite engagement, GPIbα may influence FIIa-dependent processes relevant to hemostasis and thrombosis.
