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

Protease-activated receptor-1 (PAR-1) is a key regulator of mesenchymal stem cell (MSC) migration and tissue integration. Dabigatran, a direct thrombin inhibitor widely used as a non-vitamin K oral anticoagulant (NOAC), may affect PAR-1-mediated signaling pathways. This study investigated the effects of dabigatran on cell viability, apoptosis, and PAR-1 activity in adipose-derived MSCs (ADMSCs) in vitro. ADMSCs were exposed to five concentrations of dabigatran etexilate with thrombin activation. Cell viability was assessed using the MTT assay, apoptosis and morphological changes were evaluated via acridine orange/propidium iodide staining, and PAR-1 expression was analyzed by immunofluorescence. Results showed that high dabigatran concentration significantly reduced cell viability and induced apoptotic morphological changes. In contrast, lower, non-cytotoxic concentrations preserved normal fibroblastic morphology and maintained cell viability while reducing PAR-1 surface expression compared with thrombin-activated controls. These findings indicate that dabigatran at non-cytotoxic doses can modulate PAR-1 activity without compromising ADMSC survival. In conclusion, dabigatran influences MSC-related cellular functions beyond its anticoagulant properties.
