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

Haemarthrosis is an uncommon complication of anticoagulation therapy. Tranexamic acid (TXA) has a high clinical value for the treatment of bleeding due to fibrinolysis. We describe a case of a 61-year-old woman with a mechanical heart valve who presented with warfarin-related recurrent haemarthrosis of her right knee, which recurred after transarterial embolisation. Intra-articular injection of TXA led to a cessation of haemarthrosis without any adverse event for 1 year. Intra-articular injection of TXA may be an effective treatment for warfarin-related haemarthrosis.
