Desmopressin as a Treatment in Patients With Von Willebrand Disease: A Systematic Review.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Von Willebrand disease (VWD) and hemophilia A are the most common inherited bleeding disorders. Quantitative or qualitative von Willebrand factor (VWF) anomalies cause this disorder in men and women. VWF, a plasma glycoprotein, relies on platelets for primary hemostasis. It also carries and stabilizes factor VIII in the blood. VWD has several categories. Types 1 and 3 have partial or total VWF quantitative deficiencies. However, type 2 and its subtypes have VWF quality issues. The major treatment is desmopressin (DDAVP), which replaces endogenous VWF and factor VIII (FVIII). Plasma-derived VWF/FVIII products may also be substituted exogenously. Treatment with plasma-derived or recombinant VWF concentrates without FVIII is also possible. The purpose of this retrospective, single-center research was to evaluate DDAVP's efficacy in treating VWD based on many criteria established in the current literature. We looked at the results on Google Scholar, the Cochrane Library, and PubMed/Medline. There were a total of 10 papers found, evaluated, and accepted for inclusion in this study. A comprehensive analysis of DDVAP's role in VWD was compiled from the aforementioned papers. Various aspects of DDVAP were captured by including an analysis of complementary treatments used in surgical and clinical settings. We also describe the treatment's intended impact on the different variations of the disease. Given these results, further investigation is required to determine the most effective method for managing VWD so that it may be included in standard clinical practice.
