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

Acquired hemophilia A (AHA) is an uncommon bleeding disorder infrequently reported among Indians. The present retrospective data comprises eight cases of AHA over a period of 15 years. The mean age of patients was 59.7 years. The activated partial thromboplastin time was prolonged in all cases and the inhibitor screen showed the presence of inhibitors. Factor VIII: C assay was performed in 7 cases and all cases demonstrated low levels. Lupus anticoagulant was negative. Six patients were managed with steroids and symptomatic supportive care. These patients were followed up for a mean period of 3.5 years (range 1-5 years). Of these, there was one fatality prior to initiation of therapy and one patient continues to have inhibitors.
