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

backgroundSepsis is a syndrome of severe systemic inflammatory response. When combined with disseminated intravascular coagulation, mortality is increased. The need for anticoagulant therapy is still the focus of debate.

methodsPubMed, Embase, Cochrane Library, and Web of Science were searched. Adult patients with sepsis-induced disseminated intravascular coagulation were included in this study. All-cause mortality as efficacy and serious bleeding complications as adverse effect were measured as primary outcomes. Methodological quality of included studies were assessed using the Methodological Index for Non-randomized Studies (MINORS). Meta-analysis was performed using R software (version 3.5.1) and Review Manager (version 5.3.5).

resultsThere were nine eligible studies with 17,968 patients included. There were no significant reductions in mortality between the anticoagulant group and the non-anticoagulant group (RR, 0.89; 95% CI, 0.72-1.10;

conclusionsOur study observed no significant benefit of anticoagulant therapy on mortality of sepsis-induced DIC. Anticoagulation therapy can promote DIC resolution in sepsis-induced DIC. In addition, anticoagulant therapy does not increase the risk of bleeding in these patients.
