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

BACKGROUND The objective of the current study was to guide the early clinical treatment strategies by assessing the recovery of abnormal coagulation in acute promyelocytic leukemia (APL) patients during induction therapy. MATERIAL AND METHODS Retrospective analysis was performed in 112 newly-diagnosed patients with APL during induction treatment. RESULTS The early death (ED) rate in our study was 5.36% and the main cause was fetal hemorrhage. The presence of bleeding symptoms was significantly correlated with low platelet and fibrinogen levels. The values of white blood cell (WBC), lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), prothrombin time (PT), fibrinogen, and bone marrow leukemic promyelocyte in the high-risk group were significantly different from those in the low/intermediate-risk groups. Coagulation variables significantly improved after dual induction therapy. No significant difference was found in changes of platelet (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT), D-dimers, and fibrinogen among different risk groups after induction therapy. D-dimer levels were initially high and remained well above normal after 4 weeks of induction therapy. CONCLUSIONS Aggressive prophylactic transfusion to maintain high platelet and fibrinogen transfusion thresholds could reduce hemorrhage in APL patients. Immediately starting induction therapy effectively alleviated coagulopathy in APL patients. Hyperfibrinolysis was a more important event in the APL hemorrhagic diathesis.
