Intravenous Tranexamic Acid Has Benefit for Reducing Blood Loss after Open-Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy: A Randomized Controlled Trial.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
(1) Background: the purpose of this study was to investigate the efficacy and safety of intravenous (IV) administration of tranexamic acid (TXA) in patients undergoing medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy (MOWHTO). (2) Methods: a total of 73 patients were randomly allocated into two groups (TXA group and control group). The primary outcome was total perioperative calculated blood loss after MOWHTO. Secondary outcomes included self-reported pain severity using a 10-point visual analog scale (VAS) and the EuroQol-5 Dimension (EQ-5D) questionnaire. The postoperative allogeneic transfusion rate and wound complications were compared. Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) incidence was compared by conducting DVT computed tomography imaging. (3) Results: the total blood loss after surgery was 470.9 mL in the TXA group and 739.3 mL in the control group, showing a significant difference (
