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

The present study investigated the predictive value of the platelet aggregation rate in postpartum deep venous thrombosis and its possible mechanism. From January 2014 to January 2016, 23 patients with postpartum deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity treated in the Department of Obstetrics of Beijing Chaoyang Hospital were as assigned as the observation group. At the same time, 25 cases with normal recovery were assigned as the control group. Blood samples were collected from all the subjects. The platelet aggregation rate was measured using a platelet aggregation apparatus. Plasma platelet activating factor (PAF) levels were measured by ELISA. The positive rate of platelet P-selectin (CD62p) and lysosomal membrane glycoprotein (CD63) was measured by flow cytometry. PI3K expression and AKt phosphorylation levels were measured by western blot analysis. The ROC curve was used to evaluate the value of the platelet aggregation rate in predicting postpartum deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity. The correlation between the platelet aggregation rate and PAF and PI3K/AKt expression was also analyzed. The cesarean section rate, platelet 5-min maximum aggregation rate, PAF level and the positive rate of CD62p and CD63 were significantly higher in the control than those in the observation group (P<0.05). Furthermore, the platelet aggregation rate was positively correlated with the expression of PAF, CD62p and CD63 (r=0.389, 0.451, and 0.452; all P<0.05). The platelet 5-min maximum aggregation rate for predicting postpartum deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity was reflected by the area under the ROC curve (AUC=0.797, P=0.000). The PI3Kp110β/β-actin and p-AKt/AKt ratio was significantly higher in the observation compared with the control group (P<0.05). In addition, the platelet aggregation rate was positively correlated with the expression of PI3K and phosphorylation level of AKt (r=0.441, 0.430; all P<0.05). The results suggested that platelet aggregation activity is elevated in postpartum deep vein thrombosis patients. It has a certain predictive value for the occurrence of postpartum deep vein thrombosis of lower extremity. Thuss, the PI3K/AKt signaling pathway may be one of the mechanisms of platelet aggregation.
