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

Platelets in flowing blood are sometimes exposed to elevated shear forces caused by anastomotic stenosis at the blood vessel-vascular implant interface. The objective of this study was to determine how effective upstream shear forces are in priming platelets for downstream adhesion and activation. Flow chambers with upstream stenotic regions (shear rates of 400-1000 s STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: A synthetic small-diameter vascular graft can often become stenotic due to intimal fibrous hyperplasia, either generally along the inside of the graft or at the anastomotic regions, leading to an increased shear force on flowing platelets. Our lab is studying how the upstream platelet preactivation (aka "priming") in flowing blood affects their downstream adhesion and activation. This manuscript describes a study in which priming of platelets is achieved by upstream stenotic narrowing in a microfluidic flow chamber. Such experimental design was intended to mimic a vascular implant with stenotic upstream anastomosis and downstream exposed platelet protein agonists. Understanding how the pre-activated platelets respond to imperfect vascular implant surfaces downstream is an important factor in designing better vascular implants.
