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
Background & Aims: The role of protease nexin 1 (PN-1), a serine protease inhibitor that regulates both coagulation and fibrinolysis, is unknown in patients with cirrhosis. This study aimed to provide a comprehensive assessment of the role of PN-1 in cirrhosis. Methods: Plasma PN-1 concentration in 212 patients with advanced chronic liver disease and 30 healthy individuals was measured by ELISA. The role of PN-1 was investigated using thrombin generation assay, rotational thromboelastometry, and clot lysis assay in platelet-rich plasma and platelet-free plasma from 10 patients with stable decompensated cirrhosis and 10 healthy individuals. Results: Plasma PN-1 concentration was higher in patients with advanced chronic liver disease than in healthy individuals (0.21 Conclusions: Platelet-derived PN-1 was found to markedly limit fibrinolysis in decompensated cirrhosis, although its impact on coagulation appeared minimal. Although elevated plasma PN-1 concentrations were observed in patients with advanced chronic liver disease, they did not contribute to hemostasis regulation. Overall, PN-1 should be added to the list of hemostasis factors that are dysregulated in cirrhosis. Impact and implications: The role of PN-1, a serpin that regulates both coagulation and fibrinolysis, is unknown in cirrhosis. PN-1 appears as an important regulator of fibrinolysis in patients with cirrhosis. The role of PN-1 (and platelets more broadly) should be taken into account when assessing fibrinolysis in patients with cirrhosis.
