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

backgroundIn thrombocytopenic patients better assessment of bleeding risk than that provided by platelet count alone is required. Multiplate MATERIALS AND

methodsThis was an exploratory, prospective observational study of thrombocytopenic patients with haematological malignancies. Total platelet count (TPC), white blood cell count, C-reactive protein (CRP) level, temperature and bleeding status were recorded daily. TEG and Multiplate

resultsTen patients were enrolled into the study. The median number of days in a study period was 21. Bleeding was observed on 64 of 298 study days. TPC <20×10 DISCUSSION: Our findings suggest that the markers of platelet function and haemostasis provided by Multiplate
