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

We report a case of life-threatening bleeding from the small intestine accompanied by lower coagulation factor XIII (FXIII) activity. A 43-year-old man was admitted because of continuous small intestinal bleeding. He had no family or past history of bleeding. He received high volume transfusion of red blood cells (total 20 unit) for persistent bleeding. All routine coagulation tests were normal, and plasma FXIII activity was 41%. Cross-mixing studies suggested an absence of autoantibodies to FXIII. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography and repeated balloon-assisted enteroscopy could not detect the focus of bleeding. The administration of purified concentrate of FXIII immediately halted the bleeding from the small intestine. Since then, he experienced no bleeding episode and has been maintaining normal FXIII activity.
