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

Anti-Xa assays are useful for monitoring the effects of selective anti-Xa drugs, such as fondaparinux, in the prophylaxis of deep vein thrombosis. In the present study, anti-Xa activity was measured using three different assays, Testzym(®) Heparin S, STA(®)-Liquid Anti-Xa and HemosIL(®) Liquid Heparin. Anti-Xa activity in each assay gradually increased from day one after administration to day eight, and still remained on day 15. Although there were significant differences in anti-Xa activity among the three assays, the activity showed significant correlation across assays. There were no significant differences in the anti-Xa activity between patients with and without DVT or between patients with and without massive bleeding on day one before and after administration, day four, day eight and day 15. Anti-Xa activity in each assay was weakly correlated with antithrombin (AT) activity. The AT activity in patients were significantly higher on days four, eight and 15 compared with day one before and after administration, suggesting that AT activity increases following the administration of fondaparinux. The three anti-Xa assay kits tested are useful for monitoring fondaparinux treatment in orthopedic surgery patients.
