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

Fibronectin is a dimeric protein widely distributed in solid tissues and blood. This major extracellular matrix protein is indispensable for embryogenesis and plays crucial roles in many physiological and pathological processes. Fibronectin pre-mRNA undergoes alternative splicing to generate over 20 splicing variants, which are categorized as either plasma fibronectin (pFn) or cellular fibronectin (cFn). All fibronectin variants contain integrin binding motifs, as well as N-terminus collagen and fibrin binding motifs. With motifs that can be recognized by platelet integrins and coagulation factors, fibronectin, especially pFn, has long been suspected to be involved in hemostasis and thrombosis, but the exact function of fibronectin in these processes is controversial. The advances made using intravital microscopy models and fibronectin deficient and mutant mice have greatly facilitated the direct investigation of fibronectin function in vivo. Recent studies revealed that pFn is a vital hemostatic factor that is especially crucial for hemostasis in both genetic and anticoagulant-induced deficiencies of fibrin formation. pFn may also be an important self-limiting regulator to prevent hemorrhage as well as excessive thrombus formation and vessel occlusion. In addition to pFn, cFn is found to be prothrombotic and may contribute to thrombotic complications in various diseases. Further investigations of the role of pFn and cFn in thrombotic and hemorrhagic diseases may provide insights into development of novel therapeutic strategies (e.g., pFn transfusion) for the maintenance of the fine balance between hemostasis and thrombosis.
