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

Type 2 von Willebrand disease (VWD) is the most common congenital bleeding disorder, with variable bleeding tendency and a complex laboratory phenotype. In the current study, we report the clinical and molecular profile of a large number of Iranian patients with type 2 VWD. All exons, intron-exon boundaries, and untranslated regions were sequenced by Sanger sequencing for direct mutation detection. All identified mutations were confirmed in family members and by relevant bioinformatics studies. A total of 136 patients with type 2 VWD were diagnosed, including 42 (30.9%), 32 (23.6%), 38 (27.9%), and 24 (17.6%) patients with type 2A, type 2B, type 2M, and type 2N, respectively. Epistaxis (49%), gum bleeding (30.2%), ecchymosis (23.2%), and menorrhagia (16.3%) were the most common clinical presentations, while miscarriage (2.3%) and umbilical cord bleeding (0.8%) were the rarest. Thirty mutations were identified within the VWF gene, nine (30%) being novel, with p.Arg1379Cys (n = 20), p.Val1316Met (n = 13), p.Arg1597Trp (n = 13), p.Arg1374Cys (n = 10), p.Ser1506Leu (n = 10), and p.Arg1308Cys (n = 9) the most common. Type 2 VWD is a hemorrhagic disorder with variable bleeding tendency and a heterogeneous molecular basis in patients in Iran.
