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

Microparticles (MPs) have been associated with inflammatory and thrombotic disease. High levels of MPs have been identified in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and associated with cardiovascular disease. We analyzed the procoagulant activity of MPs and its correlation with arteriosclerosis and arterial thrombosis in SLE patients. Eighty-seven patients with SLE were included: 22 (25.3%) with associated antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), 32 (36.8%) without antiphospholipid antibodies (aPL) and 33 (37.9%) with aPL but without APS. Subclinical arteriosclerosis, defined as the presence and number of plaques, was evaluated by ultrasonography of carotid arteries. Thrombotic events were confirmed by objective methods. The procoagulant activity of MPs was determined by a functional assay with annexin V. Subclinical arteriosclerosis was found in 19 (21.8%) patients. Thirteen episodes of arterial thrombosis and eight of venous thrombosis were recorded. The procoagulant activity of MPs was greater in patients with arterial thrombosis (17.28 ± 8.29 nM vs 12.96 ± 7.90 nM, p < 0.05). In patients without arterial thrombosis, greater procoagulant activity of MPs was identified in patients with multiple (≥ 2) carotid plaques (17.26 ± 10.63 nM vs 12.78 ± 7.15 nM, p = 0.04). In the multivariate analysis, the procoagulant activity of MPs was independently associated with multiple (≥ 2) carotid plaques and arterial thrombosis [OR = 1.094 (95%CI 1.010-1.185), p = 0.027 and OR = 1.101 (95%CI 1.025-1.182), p = 0.008; respectively]. In conclusion, the procoagulant activity of MPs is associated with arteriosclerosis burden and arterial thrombosis in patients with SLE.
