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

: Haemophilia A is treated by replacement therapy with factor VIII (FVIII) concentrate. This strategy of treatment is ineffective in some patients due to the development of neutralizing antibodies (NNAs) against FVIII. The inhibitors have been identified to act against the functional domains of FVIII. The presence of NNAs against FVIII has also been identified. There is limited data on the prevalence and significance of NNA in haemophilia. To identify the presence of NNA in severe haemophilia A in our population, patients who were recruited from community-based camps were evaluated for FVIII activity. The patient's samples were further analysed for inhibitor activity with Nijmegen-Bethesda Assay and for NNAs using an in-house ELISA. 312 severe haemophilia patients were analysed for inhibitors and NNA. In-house ELISA picked up antibodies in 56 patients (17.9%). Of these 42 (13.7%) had inhibitory antibodies and in 14 patients (4.5%) there was no evidence of FVIII inhibitory activity. A substantial number of patients with severe haemophilia A have NNA. Continuous long-term follow-up is required in this cohort to evaluate the significance of this observation.
