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

Risk assessment for venous thromboembolism in pregnancy and the puerperium is currently limited to stratifying clinical surrogate risk factors without high-quality evidence. While the absolute risk of pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism is low for the vast majority of women, associated morbidity and mortality remains significant. As guidelines for thromboprophylaxis vary widely, some women may be under- or over-anticoagulated, contributing to poor outcomes. New global coagulation assays provide a holistic view of coagulation and may have the potential to detect hypercoagulability in pregnancy, unlike clinically available coagulation assays. However, there are major technical challenges to overcome before global coagulation assays can be realistically proposed as an adjunct to risk assessment for pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism. This review summarises the literature and controversies in the prediction and prevention of pregnancy-associated venous thromboembolism and outlines the new tools in haematology that may assist in our future understanding of hypercoagulability in pregnancy.
