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

Appropriate antithrombotic therapy is critical for successful outcomes in reconstructive microsurgical procedures involving free tissue transfer. The annexin V-6L15 (ANV-6L15) fusion protein was developed as a targeted antithrombotic reagent. Annexin V specifically binds to exposed phosphatidylserine on apoptotic or injured cells, and prevents coagulation and cell adhesion, whereas 6L15 inhibits tissue factor-VIIa pathway within the coagulation cascade. The treatment efficacy of ANV-6L15 on rat island muscle and pedicled abdominal fasciocutaneous flaps following ischemic injury and ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) was evaluated. MATERIALS AND

methodsThe effects of ANV-6L15 on survival of rat abdominal fasciocutaneous flaps subjected to 10 hours of critical ischemia were assessed on day 5. Near-IR imaging was applied to evaluate the distribution of ANV-6L15 and flap perfusion. The rat cremaster muscle island flap was used to evaluate the effect of ANV-6L15 on IRI-induced leukocyte-endothelial interactions via intravital microscopy. 2,3,5 triphenyl-tetrazolium chloride assay was used to determine the ratio between live-versus-dead tissue.

resultsANV-6L15 significantly increased the ratio of viable tissue (68.5 ± 9.79% vs 84.8 ± 5.14%, P < 0.05), and promoted survival of rat pedicled abdominal flaps (59.3 ± 6.86 vs. 47.0 ± 8.67, P < 0.05). Intravital microscopy demonstrated a significant decrease in the number of adhesive leukocytes (1.8 ± 1.64 vs. 10.0 ± 6.32, P < 0.05), and the percentage change of functional capillaries (16.4 ± 15.1 vs. 47.3 ± 18.3, P < 0.05) in ANV-6L15-treatment group.

conclusionsANV-6L15 promoted survival of ischemic rat cremaster muscle and abdominal fasciocutaneous flaps and ameliorated leukocyte-related IRI. Future evaluation of potential clinical application of ANV-6L15 is warranted as a flap treatment adjunct.
