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

Heparin-induced thrombocytopenia (HIT) is a recognized complication of heparin and requires urgent detection and treatment. HIT can be divided into two types, type I and type II, with type I being a transient decrease in platelet count without clinical consequence. For the purpose of this review, the term HIT refers to the immune-mediated type II that causes paradoxical thrombo-emboli. The aim of this review is to familiarize clinicians with a specific direct thrombin inhibitor, argatroban, in the treatment of HIT. Argatroban has been successfully employed in treating HIT in many different subsets of patients, including those with endstage renal disease on hemodialysis and in patients undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention and those with multiorgan dysfunction syndrome.
