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

introductionThe global pandemic caused by SARS-COV-2 infection has raised several unique concerns in the bleeding disorders community. Although the risk of COVID-19 infection is not increased in patients with inherited bleeding disorders, the indirect effects of this infection are many.

methodsA cross sectional survey was conducted among patients registered to our centre with inherited bleeding disorders. A web-based based questionnaire was developed and shared with patients and families.

results120 patients/ families answered the questionnaire completely. During the period of lockdown, many had bleeds that were left untreated due to either difficulty in travel or unavailability of treatment. The time to treatment ranged from 8 h to 15 days in those who had a bleed. 36 % faced financial difficulties and 40 % families reported losing their job or source of income during this period. DISCUSSION: Few solutions that emerged while treating patients during this period and recommendations are discussed. Even though haemophilia has been included under the essential health services and states mandated to continue treatment for these patients despite the global crisis, patients still face challenges in terms of transport and finance.
