Observational study in European journal of haematology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

backgroundPatients with symptomatic von Willebrand disease (VWD) should be offered long-term prophylaxis (LTP) to prevent recurrent bleedings. Our objective was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of Voncento®, a plasma-derived FVIII/VWF concentrate (ratio 1:2.4), administrated in LTP.

methodsWe included patients from the OPALE study (May 2016 to April 2021), a French multicenter observational study following patients with inherited VWD, who received a Voncento® LTP during the study period.

resultsAmong the 130 OPALE-study patients, 23 patients (12 women) received a LTP and were therefore included. The median (range) age was 16 (1-85) years; 16 patients were type 3, 1 was type 2A, 6 were type 2B. Before inclusion, 19 (83%) were under LTP and 4 (17%) received on-demand (OD) treatment. The indications for initiating prophylaxis in the overall population were joint bleeding (43%), ear, nose, and throat (ENT) bleeding including epistaxis or oral bleeding (39%), and recurrent muscle hematoma (22%). The medians (ranges) dose of Voncento® per infusion, frequency, and weekly dose were 45 (33-109) IU/kg, 2 infusions per week, and 96 (44-222) IU/kg/week, respectively. The median (range) annualized bleeding rate (ABR) was 0.8, 0.7 (0-3.5), and 0 (0-2.3) for type 2A, 2B, 3 patients, respectively. There was no difference regarding to the dose, frequency of infusion, or in terms of ABR in 9/19 patients who replaced previous concentrates with Voncento®. During the study period, no adverse event was reported.

conclusionThese results suggest that Voncento® is effective to prevent recurrent bleedings in patients symptomatic VWD.
