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

backgroundThe ability to assess the hemostatic effect of the direct oral anticoagulant (DOACs) may be valuable in clinical situations such as bleeding or thrombosis, before urgent surgery, or reversal of anticoagulation. We sought to assess the anticoagulant effect of DOACs with the new-generation fully automated thrombelastograph TEG 6s using resonance-frequency viscoelasticity measurements and disposable multichannel microfluidic cartridges.

methodsA single dose of oral dabigatran 150 mg, rivaroxaban 20 mg, or apixaban 5 mg was given to 9 healthy males. Phlebotomy was performed at 0, 1, and 3 hours after administration of DOAC. TEG parameters were measured using TEG

resultsThe reaction time (R) demonstrated the strongest response to DOAC intake. There were no correlations between other TEG parameters and DOAC concentrations. Using the direct thrombin inhibitor (DTI) channel, R was significantly correlated with dabigatran levels (

conclusionWe have demonstrated that TEG
