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

An improved biointerface was developed, dynamic layer-by-layer self-assembly surface (d-LbL), and utilized as a biologically-active substrate for platelet adhesion and aggregation. Possible clinical applications for this research include improved anti-coagulation surfaces. This work demonstrated the functionality of d-LbL biointerfaces in the presence of platelet-rich-plasma (PRP) with the addition of 20 μM adenosine diphosphate (ADP), a thrombus activator. The surface morphology of the experimental control, plain PRP, was compared to PRP containing additional ADP (PRP + ADP) and resulted in an expected increase of platelet adhesions along the fibrinogen d-LbL substrate. The d-LbL process was used to coat glass slides with fibrinogen, Poly (sodium 4-styrene-sulfonate), and Poly (diallydimethlyammonium chloride). Slides were exposed to PRP under flow and static conditions with and without 20 μM of ADP. Fluorescence microscopy (FM), phase contrast microscopy (PCM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), and field emission-scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) were used to evaluate platelet adhesions under the influence of varied shear conditions. PCM images illustrated differences between the standard LbL and d-LbL substrates. FM images provided percent surface coverage values. For high-shear conditions, percent surface coverage values increased when using ADP whereas plain PRP exposure displayed no significant increase. AFM scans also displayed higher mean peak height values and unique surface characteristics for PRP + ADP as opposed to plain PRP. FE-SEM images revealed platelet adhesions along the biointerface and unique characteristics of the d-LbL surface. In conclusion, PRP + ADP was more effective at increasing platelet aggregation, especially under high shear conditions, providing further validation of the improved biointerface.
