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

introductionDirect oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are being increasingly used. However, unlike warfarin, less is known regarding their long-term side effects. To better evaluate the rates of DOAC-related adverse events (AEs) on a population level, we examined AEs reported to the FDA for three commonly used DOACs and warfarin.

methodsWe evaluated the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS) database, which compiles reported drug-related AEs from 1969 onwards. The safety profiles of the included drugs were assessed by comparing AEs per outpatient prescription and with proportional reporting ratios (PRR).

resultsRivaroxaban had the highest proportion of reported AEs. Most notably the rate for breakthrough venous thromboembolism (VTE) was higher than other DOACs. Dabigatran had the highest reported rates of ischemic stroke. When the DOAC data were analyzed using PRR, reported rates of VTE were again higher with rivaroxaban while dabigatran again showed slightly higher than expected rates of ischemic stroke. Apixaban did not show higher than expected rates in any category.

conclusionOur analysis found rates of reported breakthrough VTE were significantly higher with rivaroxaban, while apixaban had no higher than expected rates of any studied AEs.
