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

Blood loss remains a major concern during surgery and can increase the morbidity of the intervention. The use of topical haemostatic agents to overcome this issue therefore becomes necessary. Fibrin sealants are promising haemostatic agents due to their capacity to promote coagulation, but their effectiveness and applicability need to be improved. We have compared the haemostatic efficacy of a novel nanostructured fibrin-agarose hydrogel patch, with (c-NFAH) or without cells (a-NFAH), against two commercially available haemostatic agents in a rat model of hepatic resection. Hepatic resections were performed by making short or long incisions (mild or severe model, respectively), and haemostatic agents were applied to evaluate time to haemostasis, presence of haematoma, post-operative adhesions to adjacent tissues, and inflammation factors. We found a significantly higher haemostatic success rate (time to haemostasis) with a-NFAH than with other commercial haemostatic agents. Furthermore, other relevant outcomes investigated were also improved in the a-NFAH group, including no presence of haematoma, lower adhesions, and lower grades of haemorrhage, inflammation, and necrosis in histological analysis. Overall, these findings identify a-NFAH as a promising haemostatic agent in liver resection and likely in a range of surgical procedures.
