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

Thrombosis and inflammation are two major factors underlying chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH). Tissue factor (TF), C-reactive protein (CRP), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α) and monocyte chemoattractant protein 1 (MCP-1) may play critical roles in the process of CTEPH thrombosis and pulmonary vascular remodeling. Ten patients with a confirmed diagnosis of CTEPH, 20 patients with acute pulmonary thromboembolism and 15 patients with other types of pulmonary hypertension were enrolled in this study, along with 20 healthy subjects as the control group. The immunoturbidimetric method was used to determine the plasma content of CRP. The plasma levels of TNF-α, MCP-1, and TF antigen were measured by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, and TF activity was measured by the chromogenic substrate method. Percoll density gradient centrifugation was used to separate peripheral blood mononuclear cells from plasma. The level of monocyte TF mRNA was examined by reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction. The correlations between all indices described above were analyzed. In CTEPH patients, the expression of CRP, TNF-α, and MCP-1 was significantly higher than that in controls (P < 0.05). The levels of TF activity, TF antigen, and TF mRNA in monocyte cells were increased in CTEPH patients when compared with control subjects, but only the TF antigen and TF mRNA levels were significantly different (P < 0.05). In CTEPH patients, levels of CRP, MCP-1, and TNF-α significantly correlated with the level of TF antigen in plasma. TF gene expression was increased in patients with CTEPH, suggesting that blood-borne TF mainly comes from mononuclear cells. TF expression significantly correlated with levels of CRP, TNF-α and MCP-1. These factors may play an important role in the development of CTEPH via the inflammation-coagulation-thrombosis cycle.
