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

Background: Reduced effect of antiplatelet therapy has been reported in patients with ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). This could partly be explained by an increase of highly reactive immature platelets. Objectives: To investigate changes in platelet maturity and reactivity after acute STEMI. Methods: Patients diagnosed with STEMI, admitted for primary percutaneous coronary intervention, and treated according to international guidelines, were included. Blood samples were obtained within 24 hours after admission and at 2- to 3-months follow-up. Platelet maturity and reactivity using multicolor flow cytometry with SYTO-13 to categorize platelet maturity, whole blood platelet aggregation, serum thromboxane B2 levels, and standard immature platelet markers (eg, immature platelet count and fraction, and mean platelet volume) were measured. Results: A total of 44 STEMI patients were included. The reactivity of immature platelets was consistently higher at baseline and at follow-up when compared to the entire platelet population and the mature platelet population (all Conclusion: Immature platelets represent a highly reactive platelet subpopulation crucial for the overall platelet reactivity, partly due to a high expression of dense granules. Despite treatment with loading and maintenance doses of antiplatelet therapy, the reactivity of immature platelets remained high in STEMI patients.
