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

objectiveThe primary aim of this study was to determine if there is an existing link between attachment orientation and platelet activity. Second to this primary aim, was to explore moderating factors by which attachment may influence platelet activity, including trauma, age, and gender, given prior work.

methodRegression analyses were used for the primary aims. Consistent with prior work on psychosocial processes and biological pathways, age, gender, ethnicity, and measures of body mass index were controlled for. The main effects of attachment orientation on platelet levels were examined.

resultsBoth anxious (

conclusionWhereas no significant moderation was found, our regression analyses indicated reliable main effects of attachment orientation on platelet activity. Importantly, our novel findings are in the same direction of similar research, demonstrating that acute versus chronic states of anxiety or stress may have distinctly different influences on levels of platelet activity. This is consequential, as this has different implications for the onset, development, and treatment of diseases linked to chronic states of anxiety or stress, such as cardiovascular disease, cancer, and stroke.
