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

backgroundWe previously described the association between rare ADAMTS13 single nucleotide variants (SNVs) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Moreover, DVT patients with at least one rare ADAMTS13 SNV had a lower ADAMTS13 activity than non-carriers.

aimsTo confirm ADAMTS13 variants association with DVT and reduced plasma ADAMTS13 activity levels in a larger population. To investigate the role of VWF and F8 variants.

methodsADAMTS13, VWF and F8 were sequenced using next-generation sequencing in 594 Italian DVT patients and 571 controls. Genetic association testing was performed using logistic regression and gene-based tests. The association between rare ADAMTS13 variants and the respective plasmatic activity, available for 365 cases and 292 controls, was determined using linear regression. All analyses were age-, sex- adjusted.

resultsWe identified 48 low-frequency/common and 272 rare variants. Nine low-frequency/common variants had a P<0.05, but a false discovery rate between 0.06 and 0.24. Of them, 7 were found in ADAMTS13 (rs28641026, rs28503257, rs685523, rs3124768, rs3118667, rs739469, rs3124767; all protective) and 2 in VWF (rs1800382 [risk], rs7962217 [protective]). Rare ADAMTS13 variants were significantly associated with DVT using the burden, variable threshold (VT) and UNIQ (P<0.05), but not with C-ALPHA, SKAT and SKAT-O tests. Rare VWF and F8 variants were not associated with DVT. Carriers of rare ADAMTS13 variants had lower ADAMTS13 activity than non-carriers (ß -6.2, 95%CI -11,-1.5). This association was stronger for DVT patients than controls (ß -7.5, 95%CI -13.5,-1.5 vs. ß -2.9, 95%CI -10.4,4.5).

conclusionsADAMTS13 and VWF low-frequency/common variants mainly showed a protective effect, although their association with DVT was not confirmed. DVT patients carrying a rare ADAMTS13 variants had slightly reduced ADAMTS13 activity levels, but a higher DVT risk. Rare VWF and FVIII variants were not associated with DVT suggesting that other mechanisms are responsible for the high VWF and FVIII levels measured in DVT patients.
