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

backgroundPC (protein C) is a plasma anticoagulant encoded by

methodsWe generated an engineered APC (activated PC) to insert a furin-cleaving peptide sequence between light and heavy chains. The engineered PC was expressed in the liver of mice using an adeno-associated virus vector or CRISPR/Cas9 (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat-associated 9)-mediated genome editing using an adeno-associated virus vector in vivo.

resultsThe engineered PC could be released in its activated form and significantly prolonged the plasma coagulation time independent of the cofactor activity of PS (protein S) in vitro. The adeno-associated virus vector-mediated expression of the engineered PC, but not wild-type PC, prolonged coagulation time owing to the inhibition of activated coagulation FV (factor V) in a dose-dependent manner and abolished pathological thrombus formation in vivo in C57BL/6J mice. The insertion of

conclusionsThese results suggest that the expression of engineered PC via neonatal genome editing is a potential cure for severe congenital PC deficiency.
