Epidemiology of Bleeding in Critically Ill Children With an Underlying Oncologic Diagnosis.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesCritically ill children with malignancy have significant risk of bleeding but the exact epidemiology is unknown. We sought to describe severe bleeding events and associated risk factors in critically ill pediatric patients with an underlying oncologic diagnosis using the newly developed Bleeding Assessment Scale in Critically Ill Children definition.
designRetrospective cohort study.
settingPICU in comprehensive cancer center. PATIENTS: Children ages 28 days to 18 years with an underlying oncologic diagnosis admitted to the PICU during 2018.
interventionsNone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsTwo-hundred sixty-seven admissions met inclusion criteria. Sixty-four percent (171/267) were male, with a median (interquartile range) age of 6.3 years (3.1-12.1 yr). Nine percent (23/267) had at least one severe bleeding event during their PICU admission. There were no significant differences between those with severe bleeding and those without, with respect to gender (
conclusionsSevere bleeding occurred in nearly one-tenth of critically ill children with an underlying oncologic diagnosis without severe thrombocytopenia or coagulopathy. The vast majority received blood component therapy, but few received hemostatic medication. Studies are needed to guide the treatment of severe bleeding in this vulnerable patient population.
