Recombinant dermatan sulfate is a potent activator of heparin cofactor II-dependent inhibition of thrombin.
Article in Glycobiology, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
The glycosaminoglycan dermatan sulfate (DS) is a well-known activator of heparin cofactor II-dependent inactivation of thrombin. In contrast to heparin, dermatan sulfate has never been prepared recombinantly from material of non-animal origin. Here we report on the enzymatic synthesis of structurally well-defined DS with high anticoagulant activity. Using a microbial K4 polysaccharide and the recombinant enzymes DS-epimerase 1, dermatan 4-O-sulfotransferase 1, uronyl 2-O-sulfotransferase and N-acetylgalactosamine 4-sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase, several new glycostructures have been prepared, such as a homogenously sulfated IdoA-GalNAc-4S polymer and its 2-O-, 6-O- and 2,6-O-sulfated derivatives. Importantly, the recombinant highly 2,4-O-sulfated DS inhibits thrombin via heparin cofactor II, approximately 20 times better than heparin, enabling manipulation of vascular and extravascular coagulation. The potential of this method can be extended to preparation of specific structures that are of importance for binding and activation of cytokines, and control of inflammation and metastasis, involving extravasation and migration.
