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

background and purposeLow biological response to Clopidogrel prescribed after non cardioembolic ischemic stroke or transient ischemic attack (TIA) is a major clinical problem and could explain the recurrence of vascular events. Platelet α2-adrenoreceptors are involved in the high residual platelet reactivity in stable coronary artery disease patients on dual antiplatelet therapy. In the present study we investigated the impact of platelet α2-adrenoreceptors on ADP-induced platelet aggregation and on ADP-induced platelet membrane CD62P (P-selectin) expression, a marker of platelet activation on blood samples from patients hospitalized at the acute phase of a non cardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA.

methods72 consecutive patients were prospectively recruited over the course of two years in a monocentric study. Patients received a daily 75 mg-dose of Clopidogrel. ADP-induced platelet aggregation was measured alone, with low dose epinephrine or with atipamezole, a selective α blocker of α2-adrenoreceptors, by Light Transmittance Aggregometry (LTA). Platelet membrane expression of P-selectin was measured by flow cytometry with either ADP alone or combined with epinephrine.

resultsEpinephrine at low dose stimulated ADP-induced platelet membrane expression of CD62P whereas Atipamezole significantly inhibited 10 µM ADP-induced platelet aggregation.

conclusionsOur study showed the role of platelet α2-adrenoreceptors in biological low response to Clopidogrel for patients hospitalized for a non-cardioembolic ischemic stroke or TIA. Atipamezole could improve the status of biological response to Clopidogrel.
