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

Given their ease of use, safety, and efficacy, direct-acting oral anticoagulants (DOACs) are nowadays widely used in patients with atrial fibrillation or venous thromboembolism, with or without an association with malignancy. Andexanet alfa (andexanet) is a recombinant modified human factor Xa decoy protein that reverses the inhibition of factor Xa. After Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval in May 2018, andexanet has been used for life-threatening bleeding in patients treated with apixaban or rivaroxaban. In this article, we present a single institutional retrospective review of patients receiving andexanet alfa at Guthrie Robert Packer Hospital. A total of four patients in a period of 10 months received andexanet for intracranial bleeding, 50% (2) had excellent hemostasis, 30 days mortality was 75% (3), and 25% (1) had a thromboembolic event. Anticoagulation was never started in all patients. This review tends to show the real-world utilization data of andexanet in a community hospital setting.
