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
Acute ischemic stroke (AIS) is the second leading cause of death worldwide. This study aims at assessing platelet morphology, ultrastructure and function changes of platelets in acute ischemic stroke (AIS) patients by the technique of Structured Illumination Microscopy (SIM). This assay collected platelet-rich plasma (PRP) from 11 AIS patients and 12 healthy controls. Each PRP sample was divided into 7 groups:1) rest group; 2) Thrombin-treated 5 min group; 3) Thrombin plus 2MeSAMP-treated 5 min group; 4) Thrombin plus Aspirin-treated 5 min group; 5) Thrombin-treated 1 h group; 6) Thrombin plus 2MeSAMP-treated 1 h group; 7) Thrombin plus Aspirin-treated 1 h group. SIM was applied to observe dense granules and α-granules morphology changes of platelet in AIS patients. FIJI was used to quantify the image data. We finally observed 1448 images of platelets within the 7 groups. In rest group, 7162 platelets were calculated platelet diameter, CD63 dots, average CD63-positive dots area, CD63-positive area per platelet, CD63-positive area Fov, VWF dots, average VWF-positive dots area, VWF-positive area per platelet and VWF-positive area Fov. ELISA was used to detect release of platelet factor 4 (PF4) of α-granules. The results showed that AIS patients had lower number and smaller area of platelet granules. Platelet α-granules of AIS patients concentrated to parenchymal-like fluorescent blocks in Thrombin-treated 1 h group. Antiplatelet drug treatment could reverse the concentration of platelets α-granules, and 2MeSAMP was more powerful than Aspirin in vitro. This study complemented detail information of platelet ultrastructure of AIS patients, provided a new perspective on the pathogenesis of AIS and the mechanism of antiplatelet drugs based on SIM and provided a reference for future related studies. SIM-based analysis of platelet ultrastructure may be useful for detecting antiplatelet drugs and AIS in the future.
