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

purpose of reviewThe purpose of this review is to examine the safety and effectiveness of direct oral anticoagulants and provide recommendations for the treatment of venous thromboembolism and atrial fibrillation in obese patients, elderly patients, and patients with chronic kidney disease. RECENT

findingsMultiple retrospective cohort studies have shown no difference in bleeding, stroke, or venous thromboembolism outcomes between DOACs and warfarin in patients who are obese, elderly, or those with chronic kidney disease or on dialysis. Some studies have shown that DOACs have a lower bleeding risk than warfarin in these populations. DOACs may be a safe and effective alternative to warfarin for the prevention of stroke in atrial fibrillation patients who are obese, elderly, or those with chronic kidney disease or on dialysis. Apixaban may improve clinical outcomes by lowering the risk of bleeding versus warfarin. DOACs may also be an effective and safe alternative to warfarin for the treatment of venous thromboembolism in obese patients; however, additional studies are needed to assess their use in elderly patients and those with CKD.
