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

backgroundHemophilia A is a congenital bleeding disorder caused by defective or deficient factor VIII (FVIII). The active form of FVIII is the co-factor for the serine protease factor IXa (FIXa) in the membrane-bound intrinsic tenase (FVIIIa-FIXa) complex. The assembly of the FVIIIa-FIXa complex on the activated platelet surface is critical for successful blood clotting.

objectivesTo characterize the role of lipid nanodiscs (ND) for on FVIII function in vivo and test the lipid ND as a delivery system for FVIII. To evaluate the potential of binding recombinant FVIII to ND as improved treatment for Hemophilia A.

methodsRecombinant porcine FVIII (rpFVIII) was expressed and characterized in solution, and when bound to ND. The rpFVIII, ND and rpFVIII-ND complexes were characterized via transmission electron microscopy. Functional studies were carried out using aPTT tests and time resolved tail snip studies of hemophilic mice.

resultsFunctional rpFVIII was successfully assembled on lipid ND. When injected in hemophilic mice, the rpFVIII-ND complexes showed a pronounced pro-coagulant effect, which was stronger than that of rpFVIII alone. While injection of the ND alone showed a pro-coagulant effect this effect was not additive, implying that the rpFVIII-ND complexes have a synergistic effect on the clotting process in hemophilic mice.

conclusionsBinding of rpFVIII to ND prior to its injection in hemophilic mice significantly improves the therapeutic function of the protein. This represents a meaningful step towards a new approach to modulate blood coagulation at the membrane-bound FVIII level and the assembly of the intrinsic tenase complex.
