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

Angiopoietin-1 (Ang1) and Angiopoietin-2 (Ang2) are ligands for Tie2, an endothelial-specific receptor tyrosine kinase that is an essential regulator of angiogenesis. Here we report the identification, via expression cloning, of thrombomodulin (TM) as another receptor for Ang1 and Ang2. Thrombomodulin is an endothelial cell surface molecule that plays an essential role as a coagulation inhibitor via its function as a cofactor in the thrombin-mediated activation of protein C, an anticoagulant protein, as well as thrombin-activatable fibrinolysis inhibitor (TAFI). Ang1 and Ang2 inhibited the thrombin/TM-mediated generation of activated protein C and TAFI in cultured endothelial cells, and inhibited the binding of thrombin to TM in vitro. Ang2 appears to bind TM with higher affinity than Ang1 and is a more potent inhibitor of TM function. Consistent with a potential role for angiopoietins in coagulation, administration of thrombin to mice rapidly increased plasma Ang1 levels, presumably reflecting release from activated platelets (previously shown to contain high levels of Ang1). In addition, Ang1 levels were significantly elevated in plasma prepared from wound blood, suggesting that Ang1 is released from activated platelets at sites of vessel injury. Our results imply a previously undescribed role for angiopoietins in the regulation of hemostasis.
