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

Endothelial progenitor cells (EPCs), a newly identified cell type, are bone marrow-derived progenitor cells that co-express stem cell markers and Flk-1 (one of the receptors for vascular endothelial growth factor). In this study, double-color immunofluorescence analysis was performed using anti-CD34 and anti-Flk-1 antibodies in order to examine the time-dependent intrathrombotic appearance of EPCs, using the thrombi of DVT model mice with different thrombus ages (1-21 days). In thrombus cross-section specimens with an age of less than 3 days, CD34+/Flk-1+ EPCs were not detected. EPCs were initially observed in wounds aged 5 days, and their number was increased in thrombi with the advance of thrombus ages. The number of EPCs was the largest in the 10-day thrombus. Moreover, all 15 samples aged 7-14 days had an EPC number of more than 10, and, in 9 of them, the number of intrathrombotic EPCs was over 20. In contrast, in all thrombus samples aged 21 days, the number of intrathrombotic EPCs was less than 20. However, in three of them, the intrathrombotic EPC number was ≥ 10. These observations suggested that an intrathrombotic EPC number exceeding 20 would indicate a thrombus age of approximately 7-14 days.
