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

objectivesThe aims of the study were to explore the potential associations between plasma proprotein convertase subtilisin/kexin type 9 (PCSK9) and coagulation indexes in patients with primary membranous nephropathy (PMN).

methodsA total of 87 patients diagnosed with PMN were enrolled in our study. 30 healthy participants were recruited to match PMN participants. Plasma PCSK9 concentrations were tested by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Correlations between PCSK9 and coagulation abnormalities in patients with PMN were analyzed using univariate and multiple linear regression analysis.

resultsPlasma PCSK9 levels in patients with PMN were significantly higher than that in healthy controls [232.0 (143.5, 359.5) ng/mL

conclusionPlasma PCSK9 levels had good positive correlations with procoagulant clotting factors and negative correlations with PT in PMN, which might provide novel information with regard to PCSK9 and hypercoagulability in PMN.
