Fluorescent peptide for detecting factor XIIIa activity and fibrin in whole blood clots forming under flow.
Article in Research and practice in thrombosis and haemostasis, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Background: During clotting, thrombin generates fibrin monomers and activates plasma-derived transglutaminase factor (F) XIIIa; collagen and thrombin-activated platelets offer thrombin-independent cellular FXIIIa (cFXIIIa) for clotting. Detecting fibrin on collagen and tissue factor surfaces in whole blood clotting typically uses complex reagents like fluorescent fibrinogen or antifibrin antibody. Objectives: We want to test whether the peptide using the α2- antiplasmin crosslinking mechanism by FXIIIa is a useful tool in both monitoring FXIIIa activity, and visualize and monitor fibrin formation, deposition, and extent of crosslinking within fibrin structures in whole blood clots formed under flow. Methods: We tested a fluorescent peptide derived from α2-antiplasmin sequence (Ac-GNQEQVSPLTLLKWC-fluorescein) to monitor the location of transglutaminase activity and fibrin during whole blood clotting under microfluidic flow (wall shear rate, 100 s Results: The peptide rapidly colocated with accumulating fibrin due to transglutaminase activity, confirmed by Phe-Pro-Arg-chloromethylketone inhibiting fibrin and peptide labeling. The FXIIIa inhibitor T101 had no effect on fibrin generation but ablated the labeling of fibrin by the peptide. Similarly, Gly-Pro-Arg-Pro abated fibrin formation and thus strongly attenuated the peptide signal. At arterial wall shear rate (1000 s Conclusion: Under flow, the majority of FXIIIa-dependent fibrin labeling with peptide during clotting was distal of thrombin activity. The synthetic peptide provided a strong and sustained labeling of fibrin as it formed under flow.
