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

The author used immunofluorescence and digital image processing to investigate the dynamic distribution of GPIIb/IIIa in living platelets. Resting cells were incubated with AP-2, a complex-specific, monoclonal, anti-GPIIb/IIIa antibody. Examination of intact cells demonstrated a rim pattern for GPIIb/IIIa consistent with a surface localization. Permeabilization revealed a time-dependent increase in the labeling of apparent intracellular vacuoles. This pattern is distinct from the "patch-cap" pattern observed when unfixed platelets were incubated with fluoresceinated concanavalin A. Additionally, labeling of this vacuolar pool of GPIIb/IIIa was inhibited by treatment with 2% sodium azide or by incubation at 4 degrees C. Identical staining patterns were obtained with Fab fragments of AP-2. Ultrastructural examination confirmed the presence of labeled intracellular vacuolar structures. Parallel studies performed with AP-1, a monoclonal anti-GPIb antibody, failed to demonstrate internalization of GPIb. Finally, thrombin stimulation of resting platelets, which had been preincubated with AP-2, resulted in the clearing of this newly internalized pool of GPIIb/IIIa; presumably via translocation to the surface. These data suggest the presence of an actively cycling pool of GPIIb/IIIa that has not been described previously. The dynamic distribution of this pool may be important in the regulation of platelet adhesiveness.
