Review in Journal of cardiovascular translational research, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 14 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Platelets are the key in the pathogenesis of atherothrombotic disease such as acute coronary syndromes, stroke, and peripheral arterial disease. Current anti-platelet treatments are mainly based on inhibition of two important pathways of platelet activation: thromboxane A2 (TXA2) mediated (aspirin) and adenosine diphosphate (ADP)-P2Y12 receptor mediated (clopidogrel, prasugrel, and ticagrelor). Despite the dual anti-platelet therapy with aspirin and P2Y12 inhibitors have reduced ischemic events in patients with acute coronary syndromes (ACS), the rate of recurrent ischemic complication after ACS remains high. Combination of multiple anti-platelet agents is also associated with increased risk of bleeding. Thrombin is a potent platelet agonist and the increase of its activity has been reported in patients with ACS. Platelet effects of thrombin are mediated by protease-activated receptors (PAR), and PAR-1 is the most important receptor in human platelets. Two PAR-1 antagonists, vorapaxar and atopaxar, have undergone clinical investigation. In this review, we will describe the pharmacology of PAR-1 antagonists and will review and discuss results of randomized clinical trials with PAR-1 antagonists.
