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

BACKGROUND/

aimsIntraoperative blood loss more than 400 mL during gastrointestinal surgery is an independent predictor of mortality. Desmopressin acetate (DDAVP) could reduce perioperative blood loss. Few studies have prompted concerning the effects of DDAVP on gastrointestinal surgery. This study was to investigate whether DDAVP can decrease blood loss in patients with massive hemorrhage undergoing gastrointestinal surgery. MATERIALS AND

methodsA multiple-centers, double-blind clinical trial was conducted, patients who underwent gastrointestinal surgery were recruited from 3 hospitals, randomly assigned to two different groups. Patients in the treatment group received desmopressin 0.3 ug/kg,30 min once a day after surgery, patients in the control group received 50 ml saline for 30 min. The primary outcome was the changes of hemoglobin at 24 hours after the surgery. And the secondary outcomes included coagulation function, urine volume, serum creatinine, and safety.

resultsThere were 59 patients enrolled between 1 June 2015 and 1 June 2017. At 24hr.after surgery, a decrease in hemoglobin in the DDAVP group was significantly lower than that in the NS group (-5.0±6.9 g/L vs. -10.2±9.3g/L, p=0.03). Sonoclot® showed that the platelet function in the DDAVP group was higher than that in NS group at 24 hr. (2.56 ±0.59 vs. 1.91 ±0.72, p<0.05). There was no difference in urine volume and serum creatinine at 24 hr. between two group.

conclusionDDAVP could reduce post-operation blood loss in patients with massive hemorrhage undergoing surgery by improving the platelet function. We observed no difference in urine volume and serum creatinine in two groups.
