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

objectiveThis study aimed to examine whether oxidized low-density lipoprotein (oxLDL) facilitates platelet aggregation, which is one cause for development of cardiovascular disease.

methodsThe susceptibility of platelets to aggregation was monitored by light transmittance aggregometry and a laser light scattering method using low-density lipoprotein (LDL) and oxLDL as agonists. β-thromboglobulin (β-TG) levels released from platelets were also measured after incubation with or without oxLDL.

resultsPlatelet aggregation was suppressed by oxLDL as estimated by maximum light transmission. Additionally, adenosine diphosphate-induced further aggregation was slightly reduced by the presence of oxLDL. Aggregation levels of a low number of platelets, which was determined by the laser light scattering method, were lower upon addition of oxLDL compared with unoxidized LDL. After a short time of incubation, oxLDL increased secreted β-TG levels in platelet-rich plasma. However, further incubation with oxLDL caused relatively lower secreted β-TG levels compared with incubation with unoxidized LDL. This fluctuation was not due to β-TG degradation by oxLDL.
