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

backgroundThe use of antitrombotic (antiaggregant and anticoagulant) drugs is increasing all over the world and in our coun-try. About 12.6% of patients who underwent gastrointestinal tumor surgery receive antitrombotic therapy for various reasons, and in this study, we aimed to demonstrate the safe feasibility of elective or emergency gastrointestinal tumor surgery with the correct perioperative antitrombotic therapy management.

methodsThe patients who were planned for gastrointestinal tumor surgery under antitrombotic treatment were analyzed in three groups as those whose pre-operative treatment management treatment was discontinued, those who underwent bridging treat-ment, and those whose treatment continued. Anti-embolic stockings or intermittent pneumatic compression devices were applied to all patients preoperatively and postoperatively as mechanical prophylaxis. Post-operative complications, especially post-operative bleeding and thrombosis, were evaluated using the Clavien-Dindo post-operative complication classification.

resultsWhen patients who were under antithrombotic therapy, whose therapy was discontinued, and who underwent surgery under bridging therapy, no significant difference was found between the three groups in terms of bleeding complications.

conclusionIn tertiary centers with high clinical experience, elective and emergency gastrointestinal system tumour surgery can be safely performed under antitrombotic therapy without increasing the thromboembolic risk.
