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

Background: In healthy individuals, plasma levels of clotting proteins naturally vary within a range of 50% to 150% of their mean values. We do not know how these variations modify thrombin generation. Objectives: To assess the impact of protein level variations on simulated thrombin generation in normal and factor (F)VIII-, FIX-, or FXI-deficient blood. Methods: We used a mathematical model of flow-mediated coagulation to simulate thrombin generation with all possible combinations of clotting protein variations within the normal range and for various tissue factor levels. We selected, analyzed, and ranked combinations that enhanced thrombin generation compared with baseline. Results: Protein variations most strongly affected thrombin generation at intermediate tissue factor levels. Low tissue factor levels prevented coagulation initiation, while high tissue factor levels always triggered thrombin generation. At intermediate levels, we identified protein variations that substantially modified thrombin generation. Low-normal FV shortened lag times and increased thrombin generation, whereas high-normal FV lengthened lag times and reduced thrombin generation. With severe FVIII and FIX deficiencies, low-normal tissue factor pathway inhibitor α and antithrombin amplified the effect of low-normal FV. For moderate FVIII and FIX deficiencies, high-normal tissue factor pathway inhibitor α and antithrombin enhanced the impact of high-normal FV in reducing thrombin production. In normal and FXI-deficient blood, high-normal FVIII and FIX significantly boosted thrombin generation. Conclusion: Our mathematical model predicted how variations in clotting protein levels, within the normal range, could contribute to the variability of bleeding phenotypes observed with clotting factor deficiencies. Our study generated experimentally testable hypotheses that could aid in developing new therapies toward normal hemostasis.
