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

rationaleNeonatal alloimmune thrombocytopenia (NAIT) caused by anti HPA-3a antibody is rare, and the clinical features of the syndrome are not specific. PATIENT CONCERNS: A male infant was noted to be irritable and physical examination revealed the presence of petechiae and bruising on the right arm and thigh after born. DIAGNOSES: Platelet antibodies were investigated using the monoclonal antibody-specific immobilization of platelet antigens (MAIPA) assay, platelet genotyping (HPA 1-17) was performed by polymerase chain reaction technique with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP). The HPA genotype of the newborn was HPA-3a/b, while that of his mother and his father were HPA-3b/b and HPA-3a/a, respectively. The sera of newborn contained antibody against the platelet of newborn's father. The HPA antibody of the newborn was identified as anti HPA-3a. The newborn was confirmed as a patient of NAIT caused by anti HPA-3a antibody.

interventionsA single dose of intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) 1 g/kg was administered from day 3 to day 7. OUTCOMES: At follow-up 3 months after discharge from the hospital, the baby was developing normally and had a normal platelet count (361 × 109/L). LESSONS: NAIT caused by anti HPA-3a antibody is rare, and we believe this study can provide insights for diagnosing prospective cases. Prognosis of NAIT caused by HPA3a seems to be favorable if diagnosed and treated in a timely manner.
