Endothelial protein C receptor gene 6936A/G single-nucleotide polymorphism as a possible biomarker of thrombotic risk in acute myeloid leukemia.

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
Protein C (PC) is a natural anticoagulant, which interacts with the endothelial PC receptor (EPCR). EPCR single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) 6936A/G results in high levels of a free soluble form of EPCR (sEPCR) and may affect the risk of coagulation. The objective of this study was to assess whether the 6936A/G SNP of the EPCR gene is involved in the procoagulant activity displayed by hematological malignancies. EPCR 6936A/G polymorphism analysis was performed in 205 patients with hematological malignancies and in 63 healthy controls. All the subjects were genotyped for the EPCR 6936A/G SNP (AA, AG and GG genotypes). The 6936A/G polymorphism distribution was similar between healthy donors and patients. The association between EPCR 6936A/G SNP and thrombosis was investigated in 110 patients. The disease-wise break-up revealed that 55 of the patients suffered from acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In AML patients, the incidence of thrombosis was 28.3% and significantly higher in the 6936AG compared with that in the 6936AA genotype (50 vs. 22%, respectively). In conclusion, this study revealed a significant association of the 6936AG genotype of EPCR with thrombotic events in AML. Therefore, the presence of the 6936AG genotype in AML patients may be considered as a risk indicator of thrombosis.
