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

Recombinant antithrombin gamma (rAT) is reported as an effective drug for patients with disseminated intravascular coagulation (DIC) in Japan. As the appropriate dose and targeted AT activity remain unknown, this study aimed to determine these aspects for sepsis-induced DIC. Thirty-one patients with septic shock and DIC with AT levels <70% were treated with rAT between May 2018 and December 2020. The recovery rates from DIC were 32.2% and 63.3% on day 3 and 5 post administration, respectively. Recovery and survival rates were significantly higher in patients who achieved AT activity ≥70% or 80% on day 3 post administration. Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis revealed that the cutoff values of post-treatment AT activity on day 3 for 28-day survival and 5-day recovery from DIC were 79.5% and 81.5%, respectively. Patients who did not achieve AT activity ≥80% on day 3 presented a lower base level of AT activity and lower dose supplementation. Our results suggest that targeted AT activity should be at least 70%, and ideally 80%, and sufficient doses to maintain this activity are required to achieve better outcomes.
