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

backgroundGlobal assays measure the interactions of coagulants, anticoagulants, and platelets on thrombin generation and may reflect the comprehensive coagulation potential in patients with hemophilia better than conventional assays.

objectivesThe objectives of the current study were to investigate the value of global assays for measuring and monitoring the coagulation potential of patients with hemophilia A (HA). PATIENTS/

methodsRotational thromboelastometry, thrombin generation assay (TGA), and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) clot waveform analysis were investigated in a cohort of patients with severe, moderate, and mild HA and compared with conventional assays.

resultsThe maximum velocity (MaxVel) parameter of modified thromboelastometry analysis, initiated by tissue factor and in the presence of corn trypsin inhibitor (CTI), had 92% sensitivity and 95% specificity for hemophilia diagnosis. The MaxVel also strongly correlated with factor VIII (FVIII) levels of patients with HA (

conclusionsThe sensitivity and specificity of the global assays was method dependent. Correlation between clinical end points and thrombin generation might also be valuable in the era of non-factor replacement therapy.
