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

Background: The majority of peripheral serotonin is stored in dense granules of circulating blood platelets and released upon platelet activation. Recently, an immunomodulatory role of serotonin in inflammation has been found, influencing the recruitment of leukocytes, especially neutrophils. Objectives: Since deep vein thrombosis creates an inflammatory milieu, called thromboinflammation, this study examined the impact of peripheral platelet serotonin on the development of venous thrombosis. Methods: To induce deep vein thrombosis, a stenosis model of the inferior vena cava was used. Six- to 8-week-old C57BL/6 (wild-type [WT]), selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor-treated C57BL/6 (depleted serotonin pools in platelets), serotonin transporter knockout (SERT Results: SERT Conclusion: The extent of venous thrombosis did not depend on peripheral serotonin in our mouse model, but rather on the presence of the serotonin transporter. In the absence of the serotonin transporter, the thrombogenic property as well as the overall immune response to venous thrombosis was reduced. The distribution of the serotonin transporter on immune cells and its thrombogenic potential should be studied further.
