Serum levels of thrombotic markers in patients with acute myocardial infarction.
Article in International journal of clinical and experimental medicine, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Tissue plasminogen activator (TPA) and plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) have pro- and anti-fibrinolytic activities respectively. The net fibrinolytic activity is mainly determined by the balance between TPA and PAI-1 levels. Considering the important role of these markers in thrombotic pathway, we determined the levels of TPA and PAI-1 in sera of 50 AMI patients, 100 patients with associated risk factors (dyslipidemia and high blood pressure) and 100 healthy controls. The findings showed significantly high levels of TPA and PAI-1 in AMI patients as compared to control subjects. Both these markers were only non-significantly increased in the risk group. There was no correlation between body mass index and these markers however TPA and PAI-1 were significantly correlated with age and systolic blood pressure, respectively. In conclusion, a combination of these markers could provide a useful tool to assess the prognosis of AMI.
