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

Tissue plasminogen activator (tPA) is the only FDA-approved treatment for ischemic stroke but carries significant risks, including major hemorrhage. Additional options are needed, especially in small vessel thrombi which account for ~25% of ischemic strokes. We have previously shown that tPA-functionalized colloidal microparticles can be assembled into microwheels (µwheels) and manipulated under the control of applied magnetic fields to enable rapid thrombolysis of fibrin gels in microfluidic models of thrombosis. Transparent zebrafish larvae have a highly conserved coagulation cascade that enables studies of hemostasis and thrombosis in the context of intact vasculature, clotting factors, and blood cells. Here, we show that tPA-functionalized µwheels can perform rapid and targeted recanalization in vivo. This effect requires both tPA and µwheels, as minimal to no recanalization is achieved with tPA alone, µwheels alone, or tPA-functionalized microparticles in the absence of a magnetic field. We evaluated tPA-functionalized µwheels in CRISPR-generated plasminogen (
