Dabigatran in Cerebral Sinus Vein Thrombosis and Thrombophilia.

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
background and purposeThrombophilic gene alterations are a major risk factor for cerebral sinus vein thrombosis (CSVT). Up to 30% of all patients with cerebral sinus vein thrombosis (CSVT) are found to have thrombophilic defects such as prothrombin mutation (PTM) or factor V Leiden (FVL). Their repercussions on the plasma levels of dabigatran etexilate are unclear. In this prospective case-control study, we aimed to investigate whether thrombophilia in CSVT has an influence on dabigatran peak-plasma levels.
methodsWe monitored 10 patients over 12 months with acute CSVT, genetic thrombophilia with off-label use of dabigatran etexilate 150 mg twice a day and measured dabigatran peak-plasma levels and radiological outcome. We also monitored patients without genetic thrombophilia with dabigatran etexilate 150 mg twice a day and compared the efficiency and dabigatran peak-plasma levels.
resultsPatients with homozygote PTM had significantly lower dabigatran peak concentration compared to patients with FVL or the control group (23 ± 4.2 vs. 152.3 ± 27.5 and 159.6 ± 63.08;
conclusionsDabigatran peak concentration was stable in patients with heterozygote FVL and heterozygote PTM, but not in homozygote PTM, compared to controls. Genetic screening for thrombophilia in patients after CSVT may be useful to make patient tailored therapeutic decisions regarding oral anticoagulation and may decrease thrombotic events.
