Occurrence of coagulation factor deficiency in post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage.

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
introductionTonsillectomy is one of the most common surgical procedures in Otorhinolaryngology and approximately 500 tonsillectomies are performed annually at the University Hospital of Vienna. Substantial postoperative bleeding is observed in 1.8% of cases, which is comparable to frequencies of 2-4% reported in other studies. Currently, routine pre-surgical coagulation investigations to predict bleeding status do not include the analysis of individual coagulation factors. MATERIAL AND
methodsWithin 2007 complete coagulation diagnostics were carried out in three patients presenting with recurrent (2-7 times) post-tonsillectomy hemorrhage but normal pre-surgical coagulation status parameters.
resultsAfter the appearance of recurrent late bleeding, single factor diagnostic analysis revealed the causes to be factor XIIa deficiency, reduced factor XIIIa or von Willebrand disease. Recurrent late bleeding was stopped by the application of coagulation active plasma.
conclusionThis study shows that, even if routine diagnostics show normal pre-surgical coagulation findings, the investigation of single factors in cases of post-surgical late bleeding may identify coagulation disorders allowing the application of tailored therapy. Including such analysis in pre-operative diagnostics could therefore significantly help to limit postoperative bleeding.
