Criteria for specific measurement of plasminogen (enzymatic; procedure) in human plasma.
Review in EJIFCC, 2000. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
There is a lack of well-established criteria for the specific measurement of fibrinolytic variables. On behalf of the SSC the Subcommittee on Fibrinolysis started a process to develop such criteria. This report describes the criteria for the measurement of plasminogen (enzymatic; procedure) in human plasma. Apparently, the most specific methods for determination of plasminogen (enzymatic; procedure) adhere to the principle of streptokinase induced activation of plasminogen and recording of activity using a chromogenic substrate. Incorporation of fibrinogen attenuates the potential effect of elevated fibrinogen or fibrin(ogen) fragments in the plasma sample. The criteria for specific measurement of plasminogen(enzymatic; procedure) are based on this analytical principle. The kinetics and principles of the assay procedure are described, and criteria as well as test methods for criteria are detailed. Guidelines for standardization, quality assurance, analytical sensitivity and establishment of reference intervals are given. The pre-analytical conditions regarding preparation of the patient and the specimen are delineated.
