Acute Traumatic Coagulopathy: The Value of Histone in Pediatric Trauma Patients.

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.
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
objectiveAcute traumatic coagulopathy occurs after trauma with impairment of hemostasis and activation of fibrinolysis. Some endogenous substances may play roles in this failure of the coagulation system. Extracellular histone is one such molecule that has recently attracted attention. This study investigated the association between plasma histone-complexed DNA (hcDNA) fragments and coagulation abnormalities in pediatric trauma patients. MATERIALS AND
methodsThis prospective case-control study was conducted in pediatric patients with trauma. Fifty trauma patients and 30 healthy controls were enrolled. Demographic data, anatomic injury characteristics, coagulation parameters, computerized tomography findings, trauma, and International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis disseminated intravascular coagulation (ISTH DIC) scores were recorded. Blood samples for hcDNA were collected and assessed by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
resultsThirty-two patients had multiple trauma, while 18 patients had isolated brain injury. hcDNA levels were significantly higher in trauma patients than healthy controls (0.474 AU and 0.145 AU, respectively). There was an association between plasma hcDNA levels and trauma severity. Thirteen patients had acute coagulopathy of trauma shock (ACoTS). ACoTS patients had higher plasma histone levels than those without ACoTS (0.703 AU and 0.398 AU, respectively). Plasma hcDNA levels were positively correlated with the ISTH DIC score and length of stay in the intensive care unit and were negatively correlated with fibrinogen level.
conclusionThis study indicated that hcDNA levels were increased in pediatric trauma patients and associated with the early phase of coagulopathy. Further studies are needed to clarify the role of hcDNA levels in mortality and disseminated intravascular coagulation.
