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

Factor XII (FXII) knockdown attenuates catheter thrombosis in rabbits. Because histidine-rich glycoprotein (HRG) modulates FXIIa activity, we hypothesized that HRG depletion would promote catheter thrombosis. To test this, rabbits were given either antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) against HRG or FXII, a control ASO, or saline. The activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT), prothrombin time (PT), and catheter-induced thrombin generation were determined in blood collected before and after treatment. Compared with the controls, the HRG- and FXII-directed ASOs reduced hepatic messenger RNA and plasma levels of HRG and FXII, respectively, by >90%. Although HRG knockdown shortened the aPTT by 2.5 fold, FXII knockdown prolonged it by fourfold; neither of the ASOs affected the PT. Catheter segments shortened the lag time and increased peak thrombin in the plasma from control rabbits; effects were significantly enhanced and attenuated in the plasma from rabbits given the HRG- and FXII-directed ASOs, respectively. Catheters were then inserted into the right external jugular vein of the rabbits, and the time for catheter occlusion was determined. The catheter occlusion times with the control ASO or saline were 62 ± 8 minutes and 60 ± 11 minutes, respectively. The occlusion time was significantly reduced to 34 ± 9 minutes, with HRG knockdown and significantly prolonged to 128 ± 19 minutes with FXII knockdown. HRG levels are decreased with sepsis or cancer, and such patients are prone to catheter thrombosis. Because HRG modulates catheter thrombosis, our findings suggest that HRG supplementation may prevent this problem.
