Generation and characterization of tissue-type plasminogen activator transgenic rats.
Article in Journal of thrombosis and thrombolysis, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
To address a species difference in the responsiveness to human recombinant tissue-type plasminogen activator (rt-PA) between rats and humans, tPA transgenic (Tg) rats were generated and characterized. In the rats, transcriptional regulation of tPA was designed under the control of the endogenous tPA promoter. There were no significant differences in hematological parameters between the tPA Tg and non Tg rats. Plasma tPA concentration was significantly increased and serum free PAI-1 was significantly decreased in the tPA Tg rats. Significant overexpression of tPA mRNA in five major organs was also confirmed in the tPA Tg rats. In contrast, the extent of tPA mRNA induction by pathophysiological stimuli (focal cerebral ischemia) was comparable in the two strains. Earlier increase in the plasma D-Dimer level was observed in the tPA Tg rats in a model of thromboembolism compared with the non Tg rats. On the other hand, there was no statistically significant prolongation of bleeding time in a rat model of bleeding between the two strains. rt-PA showed dose-related blood flow restoration in a rat model of thromboembolic stroke in the tPA Tg rats from a dose (1 mg/kg, i.v.) similar to clinical doses for human stroke patients. In conclusion, tPA Tg rats, in which tPA is overexpressed and endogenous fibrinolytic activity is enhanced without hemostatic abnormality, were generated. tPA Tg rats would be beneficial for the pharmacological and the toxicological evaluation of rt-PA and other various fibrinolytic enhancers.
