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

CD47 serves as a ligand for signaling regulatory protein α (SIRPα) and as a receptor for thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1). Although CD47, TSP-1, and SIRPα are thought to be involved in the clearance of aged red blood cells (RBCs), aging-associated changes in the expression and interaction of these molecules on RBCs have been elusive. Using direct stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (dSTORM)-based imaging and quantitative analysis, we can report that CD47 molecules on young RBCs reside as nanoclusters with little binding to TSP-1, suggesting a minimal role for TSP-1/CD47 signaling in normal RBCs. On aged RBCs, CD47 molecules decreased in number but formed bigger and denser clusters, with increased ability to bind TSP-1. Exposure of aged RBCs to TSP-1 resulted in a further increase in the size of CD47 clusters via a lipid raft-dependent mechanism. Furthermore, CD47 cluster formation was dramatically inhibited on thbs1
