Fasciotomy on a female patient with acquired factor VIII: A case report and literature review of management.
Article in Clinical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Key Clinical Message: Acquired factor VIII inhibitors can be a rare cause of extensive intramuscular bleeding requiring fasciotomy. The subsequent postoperative period requires close monitoring due to high risk of fatal blood loss. Abstract: Acquired factor VIII inhibitors are a rare cause of often extensive bleeding and subsequently large hematomas. This disorder's overall mortality can reach 38%, largely due to immunosuppression and subsequent infections or an underlying cause such as malignancy. The patient in this case study presented with a hematoma and extensive ecchymosis of the hand and forearm, which continued to progress, precipitating compartment syndrome of the hand and forearm and ultimately requiring fasciotomy. The combination of factors led to significant blood loss in the postoperative period requiring major fluid resuscitation and intensive care unit (ICU) level care. Due to this disorder's rarity and overall mortality, we present this case report with a literature review for management of acquired hemophilia in the setting of urgent fasciotomy.
