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

For many decades immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) was managed using therapies which had not undergone randomised clinical trials and included corticosteroids, immune suppression or splenectomy. These older therapies are associated with an increase in morbidity and mortality. These empirical therapies have variable efficacy and well-described side effects for many patients with minimal benefit to the patient. Over the past 10 years there has been a shift away from immune suppression and non-evidence-based therapies towards using treatments with reduced or no immune suppression with an increasing reliance on the recently developed and approved thrombopoietin receptor agonists. The recent COVID-19 pandemic has made it more urgent that we develop non-immune suppressive strategies for ITP. In this commentary we describe our proposal for a contemporary approach to the management of ITP in adults that is based on our hospital practices and published guidelines.
