Novel insights into mouse models of ectopic proplatelet release.
Article in Blood advances, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Mature bone marrow (BM) megakaryocytes (MKs) produce platelets by extending proplatelets into sinusoidal blood vessels. Defects in this process can lead to thrombocytopenia and increased risk of bleeding. Mice lacking the actin-regulatory proteins Profilin 1 (PFN1), Wiskott-Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASp), Actin Related Protein 2/3 complex (Arp2/3), or adhesion and degranulation-promoting adapter protein (ADAP) display thrombocytopenia and ectopic release of (pro)platelet-like particles into the BM compartment, pointing to an important axis of actin-mediated directional proplatelet formation. The mechanism underlying ectopic release in these mice is still not completely understood. However, we hypothesized that similar functional defects account for this observation. We analyzed WASp-, ADAP-, PFN1-, and ARPC2-knockout mice to determine the role of actin reorganization and integrin activation in directional proplatelet formation. ADAP-, ARPC2-, and PFN1-deficient MKs displayed reduced adhesion to collagen, defective F-actin organization, and diminished β1-integrin activation. WASp-deficient MKs showed the strongest reduction in the adhesion assay of collagen and altered F-actin organization with reduced podosome formation. Our results indicate that ADAP, PFN1, WASp, and ARP2/3 are part of the same pathway that regulates polarization processes in MKs and directional proplatelet formation into BM sinusoids.
