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

Direct oral anticoagulants are associated with rates of major bleeding which are not negligible, albeit lower than those associated with vitamin K antagonists. No specific reversal agent for factor Xa (FXa) direct inhibitors is currently available for clinical use. A modified activated human FXa decoy protein, andexanet alfa, is being developed that binds FXa direct inhibitors in their active site, thus reversing their anticoagulant effect. The purpose of this article is to review the design, development and clinical trials of andexanet alfa. Andexanet alfa was shown to reverse FXa inhibitors anticoagulant activity both in thrombosis animal models, healthy volunteers and patients with acute major bleeding. Andexanet alfa has been studied in double-blind, placebo-controlled phase II and III studies. A preliminary report of the phase III study showed that an effective hemostasis was obtained after andexanet alfa infusion in the majority of the patients with acute major bleeding associated with FXa inhibitors. Additional studies are ongoing and andexanet alfa is expected to be launched in the market in the near future.
