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
backgroundActivated protein C (APC) has anticoagulant and cytoprotective cell-signaling activities, which often require protease-activated receptor (PAR) 1 and PAR3 and PAR cleavages at noncanonical sites (R46-N47 and R41-G42, respectively). Some PAR1-derived (P1) peptides and PAR3-derived (P3) peptides, eg, P1-47-66 and P3-42-65, mimic APC's cell signaling. In anti-inflammatory assays, these 2 peptides at low concentrations synergistically attenuate cellular inflammation.
objectivesTo determine whether a P1 peptide covalently linked to a P3 peptide mimics APC's anti-inflammatory and endothelial barrier stabilization activities.
methodsAnti-inflammatory assays employed stimulated THP-1 cells and caspase-1 measurements. Cultured human EA.hy926 or murine aortic endothelial cells (ECs) exposed to thrombin were monitored for transendothelial electrical resistance. Bivalent covalently linked P1:P3 peptides were studied for APC-like activities.
resultsIn anti-inflammatory assays, P1-47-55 was as active as P1-47-66 and some P3 peptides (eg, P3-44-54 and P3-51-65) were as active as P3-42-65. The bivalent P1:P3 peptide comprising P1-47-55-(Gly[10 residues])-P3-51-65 (designated "G10 peptide") was more potently anti-inflammatory than the P1 or P3 peptide alone. In transendothelial electrical resistance studies of thrombin-challenged ECs, P1-47-55 and the G10 peptide mimicked APC's protective actions. In dose-response studies, the G10 peptide was more potent than the P1-47-55 peptide. In murine EC studies, the murine PAR-sequence-derived G10 peptide mimicked murine APC's activity. Anti-PAR1 and anti-PAR3 antibodies, but not anti-endothelial protein C receptor antibodies, abated G10's cytoprotection, showing that G10's actions involve PAR1:PAR3. G10 significantly increased survival in murine endotoxemia.
conclusionThe PAR-sequence-derived G10 peptide is a bivalent agonist that mimics APC's cytoprotective, anti-inflammatory, and endothelial barrier-stabilizing actions and APC's protection against endotoxemic mortality.
