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

We utilized a case control study to determine if novel oral anticoagulants were associated with a higher risk of inpatient epistaxis admission. Adult patients admitted with a principal diagnosis of epistaxis in 2019-2021 were identified as well as a control group of patients matched 1:1 for age, sex, race, and medical comorbidities. For both cohorts, the presence or absence of an oral anticoagulant, classified as vitamin K inhibitors, direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) or platelet inhibitors, was identified. 158 adult unique inpatient admissions with a principal diagnosis of epistaxis were identified. Vitamin K inhibition was present in 5.7% of cases versus 0.6% of controls (
