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

In rats intravenous aspirin was only slightly more effective an inhibitor of platelet thromboxane B2 (TxB2) than of aorta 6-keto-prostaglandin (PGF)1 alpha generation (1.9 versus 2.1 mg/kg). In contrast, oral aspirin was about five times more effective on platelet than on aorta cyclooxygenase activity. The "biochemical selectivity" of aspirin as an inhibitor of platelet and vascular cyclooxygenase thus was not apparent after intravenous administration of the drug. However, this could be achieved by relatively low doses of oral (or intraduodenal) aspirin, on account of "presystemic" acetylation of platelet cyclooxygenase. Even in this condition, though, aspirin selectivity was relative to "systemic" peripheral vessels but not to the vessels of the enterohepatic circulation. Indeed after an oral or intraduodenal dose of 5 mg/kg aspirin, generation of portal vein 6-keto-PGF1 alpha was inhibited to much the same extent as platelet TxB2, while inferior vena cava 6-keto-PGF1 alpha formation was spared.
