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

The aim of this study is to investigate the recent trend over time of outcomes of patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) based on the Japanese administrative database. A total of 34,711 patients with DIC had been referred to 1,092 hospitals from 2010 to 2012 in Japan. We collected patients' data from the administrative database to compare in-hospital mortality within 14 and 28 days between periods. The study periods were categorized into three groups: 2010 (n = 8,382), 2011 (n = 13,372), and 2012 (n = 12,957). These analyses were performed according to the underlying diseases associated with DIC. The in-hospital mortality within 14 or 28 days of DIC patients with infectious diseases decreased between 2010 and 2012 (within 14 days: 20.4 vs. 18.1 vs. 17.9 %, P = 0.009; within 28 days: 31.1 vs. 28.7 vs. 27.7%, P = 0.003; respectively). Multiple logistic regressions also showed that the period was associated with in-hospital mortality of DIC patients with infectious diseases. The odds ratios of 2011 and 2012 for in-hospital mortality within 14 days were 0.86 [95% confidence intervals (CI) 0.77-0.97] and 0.84 (95% CI 0.75-0.94) whereas those for in-hospital mortality within 28 days were 0.89 (95% CI 0.81-0.98) and 0.83 (95% CI 0.76-0.92), respectively. However, there were no significant differences in mortality of patients with DIC associated with other underlying diseases between 2010 and 2012. This study demonstrated that in-hospital mortality of DIC patients with infectious diseases gradually improved between 2010 and 2012 in Japan.
