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.

Abstract

backgroundThe residual antithrombotic activity 12 hours after intake of direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) is of clinical relevance in the setting of bleeding or urgent surgery.

objectiveTo evaluate the effects of DOACs on thrombin generation 12 hours after DOAC intake in comparison to baseline and a healthy control group.

methodsEighty patients were recruited, 20 patients for each approved DOAC: apixaban, edoxaban, rivaroxaban, and dabigatran. The patients were either to be put on anticoagulation for the first time or had stopped taking oral anticoagulation for at least 48 hours. Blood plasma was sampled before (baseline) and 12 hours after starting DOAC for quantification of drug levels and thrombin generation assayed using an automated system (ST Genesia). Sixty-one blood donors served as control group.

resultsThe factor Xa inhibitors significantly increased lag time (137%-219%) and reduced thrombin peak (47%-76%) and velocity index (17%-44%) after 12 hours compared to baseline. Dabigatran showed prolongation of lag time to 133% and time to peak to 119%. All patients had residual antithrombotic activity, with reduced thrombin generation parameters 12 hours after DOAC intake compared to baseline and to the healthy control group. This effect remained significant in patients with low residual DOAC plasma levels <50 ng/mL.

conclusionThrombin generation remains reduced 12 hours after DOAC intake. While thrombin peak is particularly modified by factor Xa inhibitors, all DOACs prolong the lag time and time to thrombin peak. In the setting of bleeding or urgent surgery, the automated thrombin generation assay may assist in decision making and antidote administration.
