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

backgroundNeutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) contribute to the creation of a coagulation state in various diseases. Currently, it is not clear whether NETs are present in the thrombi and plasma of patients with cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). This study aimed to investigate the presence of NETs in thrombi and blood samples from CVST patients and the procoagulant activity (PCA) of NETs during the progression of CVST.

resultsThrombi obtained from CVST patients undergoing thrombectomy were examined by immunochemistry using neutrophil elastase (NE), CD66b and citrullinated histone H3(citH3). The presence of NET markers in samples from 37 CVST patients and 32 healthy people was evaluated by ELISA. NET-producing neutrophils and neutrophil-platelet (PLT) aggregates were examined in samples obtained from CVST patients and healthy people by flow cytometry. The TAT complex in plasma sample from each group was detected by ELISA to evaluate the procoagulant activity of NETs in CVST patients. Neutrophils from healthy subjects were treated with PLT-rich plasma in the presence of anti-PF4 antibodies or an autophagy inhibitor and analyzed by flow cytometry and confocal microscopy. After treatment with NETs, the expression of von Willebrand factor (VWF), tissue factor (TF) and CD31 in human brain microvascular endothelial cells (HBMECs) was measured by confocal microscopy and western blotting. Our results showed that NETs were abundant in the plasma and thrombi from CVST patients. Platelet factor 4 (PF4) from CVST PLTs induced NET generation through autophagy. NETs could induce PCA by modulating TF and phosphatidylserine (PS) in CVST. NETs also disrupted the endothelial barrier and transformed ECs into a procoagulant phenotype to exacerbate thrombogenicity.

conclusionsNET generation was mediated by PF4 from PLTs through autophagy and contribute to thrombosis in CVST patients.
