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

For some years now, direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have entered the clinical practice for stroke prevention in non-valvular atrial fibrillation (NVAF) or for prevention and treatment of venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, there is uncertainty on DOACs' use in some clinical scenarios that are not fully explored by clinical trials, but commonly encountered in the real world. We report a Delphi Consensus on DOAC use in VTE patients. The consensus dealt with seven main topics: (1) clinical superiority of DOACs compared to VKAs; (2) therapeutic options for patients with intermediate risk PE; (3) therapeutic management of patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT); (4) DOACs' role in oncological patients with VTE; (5) role of the reversal agent; (6) safety of low doses of DOACs in VTE patients; (7) DOACs long-term therapy (more than 12 months) in VTE patients; Forty-six physicians (cardiologists, internists, angiologists, oncologists, hematologists, and geriatricians) from Italy expressed their level of agreement on each statement by using a five-point Likert scale (1: strongly disagree, 2: disagree, 3: somewhat agree, 4: agree, 5: strongly agree). Votes 1-2 were considered as disagreement, while votes 3-5 as agreement. For each statement an agreement of ≥ 66% among the respondents was considered consensus. A brief discussion about the results for each topic is also reported.
