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

Glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD) deficiency is the most common human enzyme defect, which may present as acute hemolysis, neonatal jaundice, or chronic hemolysis. Ingestion of fava beans, as well as infection and certain drugs, are the most typical causes of acute hemolysis in people with G6PD deficiency. Aspirin, the cornerstone in current therapies for the prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), is occasionally reported to induce acute hemolysis in G6PD-deficient individuals. G6PD deficiency is typically asymptomatic and many CVD patients with this enzyme defect start to take long-term aspirin therapy without G6PD activity examination; however, no consensus on the safety of aspirin in this population has been reached. A few studies have reported on this issue and produced contradictory results. In this review, we discuss the possible mechanisms of aspirin-induced hemolysis, and summarize clinical evidence regarding the safety of aspirin in subjects with G6PD deficiency.
