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

Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS) is an autoimmune disorder characterized primarily by arterial and/or venous thrombosis, obstetric complications and persistent positivity for antiphospholipid antibodies (aPLs). It has been proposed that the pathogenesis of APS is closely associated with vascular endothelial cell activation, complement activation and platelet activation. Notably, APS may be key to understanding the relationship between innate immune cells, and thrombosis and obstetric complications. Monocytes are activated by aPLs, adopting a pro‑inflammatory and pro‑coagulant phenotype, and producing inflammatory cytokines; however, the exact mechanisms of action of monocytes in APS remain unclear. Monocytes may act as an intermediary, triggering immune dysregulation, closely linking them to thrombosis and obstetric complications. Therefore, a better understanding of the potential pathogenic role of monocytes in APS is required, which could assist clinicians in gaining deeper insights into the pathogenesis of APS and identifying new therapeutic targets. This may provide new options for the management of APS. Therefore, the present study aimed to review monocytes and their role in APS.
