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

Hepatic fibrin(ogen) has been noted to occur after acetaminophen (APAP)-induced liver injury in mice. Deficiency in plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), an endogenous inhibitor of fibrinolysis, increases APAP-induced liver injury in mice. However, the roles of fibrinogen and fibrinolysis in APAP-induced liver injury are not known. We tested the hypothesis that hepatic fibrin(ogen) deposition reduces severity of APAP-induced liver injury. APAP-induced (300 mg/kg) liver injury in mice was accompanied by thrombin generation, consumption of plasma fibrinogen, and deposition of hepatic fibrin. Neither fibrinogen depletion with ancrod nor complete fibrinogen deficiency [via knockout of the fibrinogen alpha chain gene (Fbg(-/-))] affected APAP-induced liver injury. PAI-1 deficiency (PAI-1(-/-)) increased APAP-induced liver injury and hepatic fibrin deposition 6 hours after APAP administration, which was followed by marked hemorrhage at 24 hours. As in PAI-1(-/-) mice, administration of recombinant tissue plasminogen activator (tenecteplase, 5 mg/kg) worsened APAP-induced liver injury and hemorrhage in wild-type mice. In contrast, APAP-induced liver injury was reduced in both plasminogen-deficient mice and in wild-type mice treated with tranexamic acid, an inhibitor of plasminogen activation. Activation of matrix metalloproteinase 9 (MMP-9) paralleled injury, but MMP-9 deficiency did not affect APAP-induced liver injury. The results indicate that fibrin(ogen) does not contribute to development of APAP-induced liver injury and suggest rather that plasminogen activation contributes to APAP-induced liver injury.
