Use of oral anticoagulants for the prevention of thromboembolic events in the post-operative period of hip arthroplasty: a systematic review.
Review in Revista brasileira de ortopedia. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Oral anticoagulants are being used in the postoperative period of hip arthroplasty to prevent of thromboembolic events, create doubts as to the effectiveness of thromboprophylaxis and reduce the risk of hemorrhage. This systematic revision is aimed at evaluating the use of oral anticoagulants in the prevention of thromboembolic events in the postoperative period of patients undergoing hip arthroplasty. Research with descriptors found on PubMed, BVS, and the CAPES portal for medical journal publications from September 2015 to June 2016, from the last ten years (2005-2015), complete, free, and written in Portuguese and in English were the methods used. The results of the studies showed some cases of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis, and bleeding; even then, the NOACs were effective in preventing thromboembolic events. There is no consensus regarding the prophylaxis method for these events, which is why the challenge is to obtain high levels of prevention while minimizing the adverse effects. The most studied oral anticoagulant was rivaroxaban (67%). The three drugs that were studied have shown to be effective in preventing thromboembolic events, but the best results were obtained with rivaroxaban 10 mg, one tablet daily; treatment duration ranged from 30 to 35 days with oral anticoagulants and from 28 to 42 days with anti-platelet drugs.
