Good metabolic control is associated with decreased circulating factor VIIa- antithrombin complexes in type 2 diabetes: a cross-sectional study.

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
backgroundDiabetes is associated with a prothrombotic state that contributes to cardiovascular (CV) events in type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Activated factor VII (FVIIa)- antithrombin (AT) complexes are indicative of tissue factor (TF) exposure and have been associated with thromboembolic risk in coronary artery disease. To our knowledge there have been no reports on FVIIa-AT complexes in T2DM, therefore we assessed factors that determine FVIIa-AT complexes in this disease and the impact of higher complexes on a prothrombotic state.
methodsIn 108 T2DM patients (mean age 63.8 years, 52.8% men, median HbA1c of 6.9 [interquartile range 6.1-8.2] %) and 83 age- and sex-matched non-diabetic subjects, we measured FVIIa-AT complexes. Metabolic control of T2DM involved fasting glucose, glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), albumin/creatinine ratio (ACR), and lipid levels. To characterize a prothrombotic state, we determined thrombin generation parameters, fibrinolysis markers, and plasma fibrin clot properties.
resultsFVII-AT complexes in T2DM patients were similar to controls (73.6 [59.4-91.7] vs. 79.6 [59.2-97.1]pM, respectively, p = 0.30). The T2DM patients with FVIIa-AT in the top vs. the bottom quartile had a larger prevalence of active smoking and insulin use, along with higher fasting glucose (+ 36.4%), HbA1c (+ 27.4%), ACR (+ 72.8%), total cholesterol (+ 34.5%), and LDL-cholesterol (+ 80%). FVIIa-AT complexes showed no associations with in vitro thrombin generation potential, plasma fibrin clot properties, or fibrinolysis variables. On multivariable analysis HbA1c, ACR, and total cholesterol remained independently associated with FVIIa-AT complexes in T2DM.
conclusionsThis is the first study to show that in T2DM higher FVIIa-AT complexes are associated with markers of dyslipidemia and glycemia control, indicating that TF-induced coagulation activation could be suppressed by achieving treatment targets.
