The Role of HSP47 in Thrombotic Disorders: Molecular Mechanism and Therapeutic Potential.
Review in Current issues in molecular biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
This review aims to analyze the role of heat shock protein 47 (HSP47) in thrombosis and evaluate its potential as a therapeutic target for deep vein thrombosis (DVT). A systematic literature review was conducted using PubMed, Scopus, and Web of Science to identify studies on HSP47, thrombosis, and collagen, selecting only relevant and methodologically rigorous articles. HSP47 regulates platelet function and collagen interaction, playing a key role in deep vein thrombosis (DVT). HSP47, known for stabilizing collagen, also improves platelet-collagen binding and thrombus formation. In addition, reduced HSP47 levels reduce platelet adhesion, resulting in reduced thrombus formation, while inhibitors that target HSP47 decrease platelet aggregation in animal models. Naturally low levels of HSP47 during prolonged immobility are also found in hibernating mammals, such as bears, and are associated with reduced formation of thrombi, indicating a possible natural mechanism of thrombo-protection. This observation could inform new therapeutic approaches. Current studies use in vitro platelet aggregation assays, flow chamber assays, and collagen binding studies to investigate the role of HSP47 in clotting. This review aims to synthesize existing evidence to better understand HSP47's role in clot formation and explore its potential as a target for novel DVT therapies.
