The role of ultralarge multimers in recombinant human von Willebrand factor - a review of physico-and biochemical studies and findings in in vivo models and in humans with von Willebrand disease.
Article in Hamostaseologie, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Ultralarge multimers (ULM) of VWF are considered to be the most active with respect to binding to platelets and to subendothelial structures and therefore are of critical importance for the function of VWF in stabilizing the primary hemostatic plug. In contrast to plasma-derived FVIII-VWF concentrates, human rVWF obtained from mammalian cell culture retains the full-spectrum of intact multimers, including ULM, as physiologically formed in the Golgi apparatus and stored in platelet α-granules and endothelial cell Weibel-Palade bodies. In the course of physico and biochemical, functional and animal studies, rVWF exhibited superiority in structure and function compared to pdVWF. These effects seemed to correlate with the multimer size and therefore might be attributed to the presence of ULM in rVWF preparations. The pharmacokinetic (PK), safety and efficacy characteristics seen in preclinical studies were further demonstrated in clinical trials.
