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

Children with a bidirectional superior cavopulmonary (Glenn) circulation develop angiodysplasia and pulmonary arteriovenous malformations (AVMs). The von Willebrand factor (vWF)-angiopoietin axis plays a major role in AVM formation in multiple diseases. We observed derangements in global angiogenic signaling, vWF metabolism, angiopoietins, and in vitro angiogenesis in children with a Glenn circulation versus controls and within Glenn pulmonary versus systemic circulations. These findings support the novel hypothesis that abnormalities in the vWF-angiopoietin axis may dysregulate angiogenesis and contribute to Glenn pulmonary AVMs. The vWF-angiopoietin axis may be a target to correct angiogenic imbalance in Glenn patients, for whom no targeted therapy exists.
