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

Aggregometry plays a crucial role in both clinical diagnostics and research within hematology, serving as a fundamental tool for understanding platelet function and its implications in physiological and pathological processes. In research, aggregometry provides insights into platelet aggregation dynamics and aids in understanding the underlying mechanisms of hemostasis, thrombosis, and related disorders. Light transmission aggregometry (LTA) and lumi-aggregometry, as well as whole blood aggregometry, are commonly employed methods. While LTA and lumi-aggregometry allow for specific platelet function assessment under controlled conditions, whole blood aggregometry provides a more physiologically relevant approach by evaluating platelet aggregation within the context of whole blood. Although both methodologies offer unique advantages, whole blood aggregometry allows for preservation of the native cellular environment, simplicity, and potential for better clinical correlation. In a clinical setting, with human blood samples, protocols are established for both LTA and whole blood aggregometry as they are frequently used diagnostic tools. A protocol for LTA and lumi-aggregometry in murine models has been described; however, to date, there is no standardized protocol for whole blood aggregometry in murine models accessible to hematology researchers. This article aims to outline a simple, basic protocol for murine whole blood aggregometry, offering an alternative method to the commonly used LTA aggregometry in research settings. Standardizing whole blood aggregometry protocols in murine models could enhance experimental reliability and facilitate translational research efforts in hematology. © 2024 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
