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

Mutations in the 5'-untranslated region (5'-UTR) of ankyrin repeat domain-containing protein 26 (ANKRD26) are associated with hereditary thrombocytopenia 2 (THC2). However, the causative role of these mutations and the mechanisms underlying THC2 are not fully established. Here, we report, for the first time, that zebrafish carrying a deletion of two nucleotides (Δ2) in the 5'-UTR of ankrd26 recapitulate some of the key laboratory features of THC2. ankrd26ku6 (homozygous for the Δ2 deletion in the 5'-UTR) fish larvae exhibited significantly increased expression of ankrd26 mRNA and protein. Adult ankrd26ku6 fish exhibited spontaneous thrombocytopenia. Furthermore, the thrombocytes from ankrd26ku6 fish showed enhanced ability to adhere and aggregate on a collagen surface under flow. Proteomic profiling demonstrated marked upregulation of Ninjurin 1 in young thrombocytes from ankrd26ku6 fish compared with those from wild-type controls. The ankrd26ku6 fish with a homozygous nacre allele developed myelodysplastic syndrome at old age. ANKRD26 protein levels were also significantly increased in platelets and plasma from patients with immune thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura compared with those from unaffected controls. We conclude that ANKRD26 overexpression, resulting from either hereditary or acquired mechanisms, contributes to thrombocytopenia, thrombosis and hematologic malignancies.
