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

Japanese obstetrical hemorrhage recommendations state that not only pregnant women with an obstetrical disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) score ≥ 8 points but also those with fibrinogen levels ≤ 1.5 g/L have a high risk of maternal death and warrant blood transfusion. Our aim was to demonstrate the potential of fibrinogen levels ≤ 1.5 g/L as predictors of a Japanese obstetrical DIC score of ≥ 8. We included 595 participants with blood loss ≥ 1000 mL during vaginal delivery or ≥ 2000 mL during cesarean delivery. The frequency and volume of red blood cell (RBC), fresh-frozen plasma, platelet concentrate (PC), and fibrinogen administration in women with a DIC score of ≥ 8 and fibrinogen levels of ≤ 1.5 g/L were significantly higher than controls (P < 0.0001). Multivariate analysis demonstrated that a score of ≥ 3 was associated with RBC or fibrinogen administration and a score of ≥ 5 was associated with PC transfusion. Fibrinogen levels ≤ 1.89 g/L and ≤ 2.44 g/L were associated with PC transfusion and fibrinogen administration, respectively. Fibrinogen levels ≤ 1.5 g/L may have similar potential to a DIC score of ≥ 8 points for detecting obstetrical DIC in Japan.
