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

Glycoprotein (GP) IIb-IIIa antagonists inhibit the aggregation of activated platelets. Three agents are approved for clinical use. In this review, the characteristics of each agent, their pharmacodynamic profile, results in pivotal clinical trials and the associated clinical implications are discussed. GP IIb-IIIa antagonists have greatest benefit when used as adjunctive therapy during percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) when the patient has intra-coronary thrombosis. These agents appear to provide greatest benefit when used in combination with heparin. The clinical niche for parenteral GP IIb-IIIa antagonists is evolving. The rapid onset and offset of GP IIb-IIIa antagonists plus dosing designed to inhibit extensively platelet aggregation differentiates them from oral agents. The contemporary niche appears to include patients in transition, such as individuals requiring emergent PCI before oral agents are fully active and for unstable patients requiring transport to PCI centres, particularly in patients likely to have intracoronary thrombus. Subsequent studies should evaluate the optimal duration of therapy with GP IIb-IIIa antagonists.
