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

backgroundTyrosine kinases are highly expressed in platelets and play an important role in their activation process. Some studies have reported the blocking effects of tyrosine kinase inhibitors on different platelet functions.

objectivesEvaluate the effects of nilotinib on platelets aggregation in 42 patients with chronic phase of CML and correlate the results with clinical and hematological parameters: age, complete blood count and presentation. PATIENTS AND

methodsThis study was conducted on 42 patients diagnosed as Chronic Phase of Chronic Myeloid Leukemia based on clinical, morphological and cytogenetic study. All patients were on Nilotinib treatment and were attending the National Center of Hematology in Baghdad. About 9 mL of venous blood sample were collected from each patient and control subjects, samples divided into 3 parts for complete blood count, platelet aggregation test and PT and aPTT.

resultsThe mean age was 41.3 ± 1.7 (mean ± SEM) years old. M:F ratio of 1.2:1. Mean duration of nilotinib therapy(1.4 years). All patients had normal PT and aPTT.Only 16 (38%) patients had abnormal aggregation response to epinephrine, but there was no statistically significant differences with control group.

conclusionNilotinib had no adverse effect on platelet function nor patients clotting tests.
