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

Venomous snakebites can induce local tissue damage, including necrosis of soft tissues, haemorrhage, blistering and local swelling associated with plasma extravasation, which can lead to lethal complications such as hypovolemic shock. However, the details of the underlying mechanisms remain unknown. In this study, we showed that intradermal treatment of mice with venom rhodocytin from the Malayan viper Calloselasma rhodostoma induced plasma extravasation, dependent on C-type lectin-like receptor 2 (CLEC-2) on platelets. Rhodocytin-induced plasma extravasation also relied on mast cells and histamine. In vitro co-culture of rhodocytin-activated platelets with mast cells induced histamine release from mast cells in an ATP/P2X7-dependent manner. Consistent with this, blockade or deficiency of P2X7 in mast cells suppressed rhodocytin-induced plasma extravasation in the skin. Together, these findings indicate that rhodocytin induces plasma extravasation by triggering platelet activation via CLEC-2, followed by activation of mast cells and histamine release via the ATP/P2X7 pathway. These results reveal a previously unrecognized mechanism by which snake venom increases vascular permeability via complex venom toxin-mediated interactions between platelets and mast cells.
