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

Von Willebrand factor (VWF) is a critical component of the hemostatic system. Basal secretion of VWF from endothelial cells is the principal determinant of an individual's baseline plasma VWF levels, while endothelial VWF release can also be induced by several biochemical agonists and biomechanical forces such as increased shear stress. However, the mechanotransduction machinery responsible for this latter response is unclear. Here we propose that the endothelial glycocalyx (EGC), a dynamic layer of proteins and carbohydrates that covers the surface of the vascular endothelium, may play a key role in mediating this response. The EGC has previously been implicated in mediating the mechanotransduction of shear stress in other shear-responsive endothelial processes, such as nitric oxide production and stem cell differentiation. Here, we hypothesize that a similar mechanism may be responsible for the basal secretion of endothelial VWF, whereby the EGC mediates the mechanotransduction of physiological shear stress generated by flowing blood, that in turn contributes to the maintenance of physiological plasma VWF levels.
