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.

Abstract

backgroundPediatric patients have increasing rates of hospital-associated venous thromboembolism (HA-VTE), and while several risk-prediction models have been developed, few are designed to assess all general pediatric patients, and none has been shown to improve patient outcomes when implemented in routine clinical care.

methodsThe Children's Likelihood Of Thrombosis (CLOT) trial is an ongoing pragmatic randomized trial being conducted starting November 2, 2020, in the inpatient units at Monroe Carell Jr. Children's Hospital at Vanderbilt in Nashville, TN, USA. All admitted patients who are 21 years of age and younger are automatically enrolled in the trial and randomly assigned to receive either the current standard-of-care anticoagulation practice or the study intervention. Patients randomized to the intervention arm are assigned an HA-VTE risk probability that is calculated from a validated VTE risk-prediction model; the model is updated daily with the most recent clinical information. Patients in the intervention arm with elevated risk (predicted probability of HA-VTE ≥ 0.025) have an additional review of their clinical course by a team of dedicated hematologists, who make recommendations including pharmacologic prophylaxis with anticoagulation, if appropriate. The anticipated enrollment is approximately 15,000 patients. The primary outcome is the occurrence of HA-VTE. Secondary outcomes include initiation of anticoagulation, reasons for not initiating anticoagulation among patients for whom it was recommended, and adverse bleeding events. Subgroup analyses will be conducted among patients with elevated HA-VTE risk. DISCUSSION: This ongoing pragmatic randomized trial will provide a prospective assessment of a pediatric risk-prediction tool used to identify hospitalized patients at elevated risk of developing HA-VTE.
