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

introductionIn the last decade, direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have been incorporated as an anticoagulation tool in patients with acute pulmonary thromboembolism (PTE). Although they have a better pharmacological profile than vitamin K antagonists (VKA), the use of these drugs is not massive. The objective of this study was to evaluate the use of DOACs in patients with acute PE and to detect determinants of its use. METHODOLOGY: Prespecified analysis of the CONAREC XX registry that included patients with acute PE in 64 centers in Argentina. An analysis was performed to detect predictors of DOAC prescription at discharge.

results579 patients who received anticoagulation at hospital discharge were analyzed: 60% received VKA, 21% heparin and 19% DOAC (of them, 49% Rivaroxaban, 34% Apixaban, and 17% Dabigatran). Patients receiving DOACs had less severe PE, lower risk of bleeding, and fewer in-hospital complications. At 30-day follow-up, there were no differences in all-cause mortality or bleeding. Health coverage by social insurance (OR 7.45, CI 95% 1.74-31.9, p < 0.01) or by private coverage (OR 10.5, CI 95% 2.4-45.9, p < 0.01) were independent predictors of DOAC prescription at discharge, and history of heart failure (OR 0.19, 95% CI 0.04-0.84, p = 0.028) and oncological disease (OR 0.49, 95% CI 0.27-0.89; p = 0.02) were predictors not prescribe them.

conclusionsOne in five survivors of acute PE received DOACs at hospital discharge in Argentina, and this was determined by clinical and economic variables.
