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
objectiveThe aim of this work was to study sex differences in major bleeding risk in relation to dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) after percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) for acute coronary syndrome (ACS). METHODS AND
resultsThe Rijnmond Collective Cardiology Research registry was designed to evaluate the application and outcomes of DAPT after ACS/PCI in the Rijnmond region in the Netherlands. Overall, 1,172 women (median age 67.5 years) and 3,087 men (median age 62.2 years) with ACS/PCI were enrolled between August 2011 and June 2013. Based on a tailored regional DAPT guideline aiming at bleeding risk minimization, 52.6% women and 66.9% men received prasugrel as first-choice P2Y12 inhibitor, in addition to aspirin. Women more frequently had contraindications for the use of prasugrel (and therefore received clopidogrel) than men (47.9 vs. 26.9%, p < 0.001). Femoral access was more common in women than in men (47.6 vs. 38.1%, p < 0.001). Women had higher incidence of major bleeding at 1 year than men (2.6 vs. 1.6%, p = 0.018). After adjustment for established bleeding risk factors, female sex was associated with over two-fold higher risk of major bleeding (adjusted hazard ratio 2.33; 95% confidence interval 1.26-4.32). This difference was apparent at discharge and appeared to be caused by access site bleedings (0.9 vs. 0.1%, p < 0.001). No sex differences were found in non-access site-related major bleeding up to 1 year.
conclusionWomen with ACS/PCI receiving DAPT had higher major bleeding risk caused by an excess in access site bleeds, mainly in relation to the femoral approach.
