Sucrose-formulated octocog alfa: a review of its use in patients with haemophilia A.
Review in Drugs, 2008. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Sucrose-formulated octocog alfa (Kogenate Bayer, Kogenate FS, Helixate FS, Helixate nexgen) is a full-length recombinant human coagulation factor VIII (FVIII) product that is purified and formulated without the addition of human serum albumin and is stabilized with sucrose. The purification process of this formulation includes a solvent/detergent viral inactivation step. Sucrose-formulated octocog alfa is approved in the EU and US for the treatment of bleeding in patients with haemophilia A (congenital FVIII deficiency). Additionally, it is approved in the EU for the prophylaxis of bleeding in patients with haemophilia A and as a continuous infusion treatment in patients undergoing major surgery. Sucrose-formulated octocog alfa is effective and well tolerated as a FVIII replacement therapy in patients with haemophilia A, including those with severe disease undergoing major surgery. The therapeutic profile of this sucrose-formulated product cannot be compared with that of other octocog alfa or moroctocog alfa products because of a lack of head-to-head comparative studies. Pathogen transmission has not been reported with use of sucrose-formulated octocog alfa. Available data indicate that sucrose-formulated octocog alfa is an appropriate alternative to other recombinant FVIII products for the treatment and prophylaxis of bleeding episodes in adults and children with haemophilia A.
