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

objectiveTo evaluate the effects of ticagrelor and high-dose clopidogrel on the platelet functions in patients with inadequate response to clopidogrel.

methodsIn this prospective, randomized and controlled study, patients who had been diagnosed as acute coronary syndrome (ACS) with inadequate response to clopidogrel in the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from July 2015 to June 2016 were enrolled. Inadequate response to clopidogrel was defined as absolute reduction of platelet aggregation rate (PAR) <30% or PAR >70%. Eligible patients were randomly assigned to two groups, the high-dose group and the ticagrelor group. Clinical information and intervention protocols were compared. The PAR of the two groups were measured at the time of baseline, the 24

resultsA total of 74 patients were finally enrolled, 38 of whom were assigned to the ticagrelor group and the rest of them to the high-dose clopidogrel group. The baseline clinical and procedural characterists were similar. There were no significant differences in baseline levels of PAR between the two groups [(79.38±11.20)% vs. (73.97±12.74)%, P>0.05]. For both groups, the levels of PAR significantly decreased at each time point (P<0.001). Besides, the levels of PAR in ticagrelor group were lower than those in high-dose clopidogrel group at the 24

conclusionsticagrelor could further decrease levels of platelet aggression rate and CD62p compared with high-dose clopidogrel, without serious side effects.
