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

Surgery inevitably leads to bleeding, and hemostasis aims at reducing the amount of blood loss and the need for transfusion as well as preventing rebleeding, hematoma formation, and the need for repeat surgery. Various locally applicable agents are in use including bone wax, gelatin, collagen, oxidized regenerated cellulose, fibrin sealant glues, and synthetic glues. Some evidence from randomized controlled trials (RCT) exists regarding the use of fibrin sealants on their own or combined with collagen fleece. Systemic hemostasis may be achieved with lysine analogs such as epsilon-aminocaproic acid or tranexamic acid and aprotinin, which are inhibitors of fibrinolysis. There is much albeit sometimes conflicting evidence from RCT regarding the use of these substances in surgery. The role of recombinant activated factor VII in achieving systemic hemostasis is being investigated.
