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

To obtain a bifunctional protein simultaneously showing bioactivity of anticoagulant and fibrinolytic for use in the treatment of thrombotic diseases, we constructed a fusion protein (HV12p-rPA) containing C-terminal 12-residue of hirudin-PA (HV12p) and reteplase (rPA). The fusion protein, in which HV12p was linked to rPA via Gly-Gly-Gly, was successfully expressed in an inactive form of inclusion bodies in Escherichia coli. HV12p-rPA was identified by sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. The expression level of HV12p-rPA was optimized by an orthogonal method and finally enhanced from 12 % to approximate 30 %. We also deeply investigated the condition of renaturation of HV12p-rPA, and the inactive protein was partly renatured through various conditions. The refolding efficacy of HV12p-rPA estimated by the recovery of fibrinolytic activity varied from 0.03 % to 16.6 % and the anticoagulant activity fluctuated in the range from 41 to 2,297 ATU/mg. Bioassays indicated that the resulted fusion protein, as expected, exhibited both fibrinolytic and anticoagulant activities. These works laid a foundation for further characterization of HV12p-rPA.
