Von Willebrand Disease in Older Patients: A Retrospective Electronic Health Record Review.
Article in Clinical and applied thrombosis/hemostasis : official journal of the International Academy of Clinical and Applied Thrombosis/Hemostasis. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) is often diagnosed as a consequence of symptoms experienced with hemostatic stressors, such as menstruation and childbirth. Thus, patients seeking medical care for VWD are generally younger. As a result, the natural course of VWD in older adults has not been well described. A retrospective electronic health record review was performed to provide a descriptive analysis of older VWD patients with at least one clinic visit at the Hemophilia Center of Western Pennsylvania (HCWP) between June 1, 2015, and May 31, 2021, and age 45 or older at the time of the visit. Data collected included VWD-related information, multimorbidity, and medications. Age-related change in von Willebrand factor (VWF) levels and the influence of multimorbidity on VWF levels were assessed. Seventy patients had 131 HCWP clinic visits. Hypertension, 34.3%, and osteoarthritis, 32.3%, were the most common multimorbidity-associated conditions. More than 33% of patients were receiving at least one antihemostatic medication. The most common bleeding symptom was ecchymosis, 22.9%. VWF antigen levels, 0.76 IU/mL, and the proportion of patients with normal VWF levels, 54.5%, increased with age to 0.99 IU/mL,
