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

introductionType 2 diabetes mellitus is a pandemic associated with disturbance in haemostasis that could contribute to the development of diabetic vascular disease and accelerated atherosclerosis. In this population, hypercoagulation is prevalent, as well as pathological changes to erythrocytes. This is mainly due to upregulated circulating inflammatory markers. MATERIALS AND

methodsHere we looked at tissue factor (TF) levels using ELISA, in a sample of diabetics, with and without cardiovascular complications. Diabetic subjects were recruited from the diabetic clinic at Steve Biko Academic Hospital, Pretoria, South Africa. 20 diabetics with cardiovascular disease and 22 without were enrolled to participate. RESULTS AND

conclusionTF levels were significantly elevated in both diabetic groups when compared to the controls. We suggest that pathologic plasma TF activity, as marker of increased propensity of clot pathology, should be investigated. Agents that might lower TF levels might also possibly lower thrombotic complications.
