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

Coumarin derivatives are the most used class of oral anticoagulants, and almost 1-2% of adults worldwide take it in the form of warfarin (WA) or acenocoumarol (AC). Cutaneous necrosis is a rare and severe complication of oral anticoagulant therapy. Most commonly, it occurs in the first 10 days, and the incidence peaks between the third and sixth day of starting treatment. Cutaneous necrosis due to AC therapy is underreported in the literature, and studies refer to this condition as "coumarin-induced skin necrosis"; however, this term is not totally accurate, as coumarin itself has no anticoagulant properties. We report a case of a 78-year-old female patient with AC-induced skin necrosis, who presented with cutaneous ecchymosis purpura over her face, arms, and lower extremities 3 hours after AC intake.
