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.
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
The thrombin generation (TG) assay is a well-established tool to capture the clotting potential of any healthy or haemophiliac subject. It measures ex vivo the kinetics of thrombin activation throughout the coagulation. Clinical studies allowed to create two databases gathering the coagulation factor levels and the thrombin generation profile of 40 healthy and 40 haemophiliac A (HA) subjects. Besides, portions of all HA samples were spiked with increasing levels of a TFPI antibody (considered as a possible therapeutic target) and corresponding TG profiles were determined. The non-linear mixed-effect (NLME) modelling aims at describing and explaining the experimentally observed important variability of the TG curves between subjects and the individual effects of spiking with a TFPI antibody. The models consist of an empirical description of the TG kinetics, accounting for an additive residual error and between-subject variability on its parameters. Factor VIII and TFPI were found to significantly explain and reduce the variability of the TG of haemophilia A samples. Besides, the model is shown to correctly reproduce the variability in the response to the ex vivo spiking with the TFPI antibody, by combining the empirical description of TG to a simple Hill equation that accounts for the binding between TFPI and different doses of its antibody. Such models can be useful for clinical practice, with the analysis and comparison of the distributions of TG profiles in healthy and haemophilia populations; and also for research, with the analysis of the effect of TFPI and its neutralization on individual TG profiles.
