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

Due to variable pharmacokinetic properties, therapeutic anticoagulation with continuous unfractionated heparin (UFH) requires ongoing laboratory monitoring, generally with activated partial thromboplastin time (aPTT). In the ambulatory setting, clinicians who manage warfarin therapy often use time in the therapeutic range (TTR) to estimate a percentage of time the international normalized ratio is therapeutic. We applied the TTR concept to aPTT monitoring for therapeutic UFH and used 2 methodologies for estimation: percentage of aPTT values in range (%aIR) and a modification of the Rosendaal method (mod-Rosendaal). This study included adult inpatients admitted between September 30, 2015, and September 30, 2016, at Brigham and Women's Hospital. For each patient, all available aPTT values were extracted to calculate 2 individual TTRs according to each methodology. Comparison between methods was performed using Student
