Urine 11-Dehydro-Thromboxane B2 in Aspirin-Naive Males with Metabolic Syndrome.

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
Urine 11-dehydro-thromboxane B2 (11-dehydro-TXB2), an indirect measure of platelet activity, is elevated in cardiovascular diseases and diabetes. The purpose of our study was to determine whether urine 11-dehydro-TXB2 is elevated in aspirin-naive males with metabolic syndrome (MS) and to determine predictors of 11-dehydro-TXB2 levels. The secondary aim was to evaluate whether these MS patients could be potential candidates for the aspirin-mediated prevention of atherosclerotic cardiovascular diseases (ASCVDs). In 82 males with MS (76 hypertensive), anthropometric measures, urine 11-dehydro-TXB2, platelet count, creatinine, glucose, insulin, estimated insulin resistance, lipid parameters, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP), adiponectin, homocysteine, and ten-year risk of fatal cardiovascular disease (SCORE) were assessed. Urine 11-dehydro-TXB2 levels were elevated (≥2500 pg/mg creatinine) in two-thirds of patients, including 11 high-risk patients (SCORE ≥ 5%). Homocysteine, adiponectin, hs-CRP, waist-to-hip ratio, and total cholesterol were found to be predictors of urine 11-dehydro-TXB2. In conclusion, there is a high incidence of elevated urine 11-dehydro-TXB2 in males with MS, including in some patients who are at a high or very high risk of ASCVDs. 11-dehydro-TXB2 levels are associated with hyperhomocysteinemia, inflammation, fat distribution, hypercholesterolemia, and adiponectin concentrations. Elevated 11-dehydro-TXB2 levels may support the use of personalised aspirin ASCVD prevention in high-risk males with MS. Giuseppe Patti.
