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

introductionThe role of platelets (Ps) and platelet-derived microparticles (MPs) in venous thromboembolism (VTE) is still being debated.

methodsWe measured MPs, velocity of thrombin formation (PiCT) and phospholipid generation (PLPs) in 40 patients with unprovoked deep vein thrombosis (DVT), who were compared with 40 healthy controls.

resultsMPs were higher in DVT (7.12 nM; 25th-75th percentile 5.26-9.12) than in controls (5.45 nM; 25th-75th percentile 1.67-8.96) (p = 0.19). PiCT velocity was lower in DVT (1.87 sec; 25th-75th percentile 1.75-1.93 sec) compared with controls (1.95 sec; 25th-75th percentile 1.84-2.24 sec) (p = 0.04). PLPs were higher in DVT (77.03 µg/mL; 25th-75th percentile 72.12-103.59 µg/mL) compared with controls (68.65 µg/mL, 25th-75th percentile 55.31-78.20 µg/mL) (p = 0.02). DISCUSSION: We hypothesize that MPs could be integrated with the lab network assay in evaluating Ps' role as an activated procoagulative condition. We encourage research on Ps and P-derived microvesicle pathways in patients with unprovoked DVT and not only in patients with cancer-induced DVT.
