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

backgroundAs a regulator of the penultimate step in the coagulation cascade, thrombin represents a principal target of direct and specific anticoagulants.

objectiveA potent thrombin inhibitor complexed with a colloidal nanoparticle was devised as a first-in-class anticoagulant with prolonged and highly localized therapeutic impact conferred by its multivalent thrombin-absorbing particle surface.

methodsPPACK (Phe[D]-Pro-Arg-Chloromethylketone) was secured covalently to the surface of perfluorocarbon-core nanoparticle structures. PPACK and PPACK nanoparticle inhibition of thrombin were assessed in vitro via thrombin activity against a chromogenic substrate. In vivo antithrombotic activity of PPACK, heparin, non-functionalized nanoparticles and PPACK nanoparticles was assessed through intravenous (i.v.) administration prior to acute photochemical injury of the common carotid artery. Perfluorocarbon particle retention in extracted carotid arteries from injured mice was assessed via (19) F magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) and imaging (MRI) at 11.7 T. Activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) measurements determined the systemic effects of the PPACK nanoparticles at various times after injection.

resultsAn optical assay verified that PPACK nanoparticles exceeded PPACK's intrinsic activity against thrombin. Application of an in vivo acute arterial thrombosis model demonstrated that PPACK nanoparticles outperformed both heparin (P=0.001) and uncomplexed PPACK (P = 0.0006) in inhibiting thrombosis. (19) F MRS confirmed that PPACK nanoparticles specifically bound to sites of acute thrombotic injury. APTT normalized within 20 min of PPACK nanoparticles injection.

conclusionsPPACK nanoparticles present thrombin-inhibiting surfaces at sites of acutely forming thrombi that continue to manifest local clot inhibition even as systemic effects rapidly diminish and thus represent a new platform for localized control of acute thrombosis.
