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

objectivesTo investigate factors influencing postoperative bleeding occurrence after dental extraction in older patients receiving anticoagulation therapy. MATERIALS AND

methodsThis retrospective study included patients aged ≥ 65 years receiving one of the following anticoagulants: apixaban, edoxaban, rivaroxaban, and warfarin. Patients who underwent one to multiple tooth extractions in the geriatric dentistry clinic at Tokyo Medical and Dental University Hospital between August 1, 2016, and November 30, 2020, were included. The outcome variable was postoperative bleeding occurrence. Logistic regression analysis was performed with the following ten factors as explanatory variables: age, sex, maximum systolic blood pressure during the extraction, type of local anesthesia, vertical incision, osteotomy, usage of surgical splints, the mesiodistal width of the extracted tooth on a radiograph, use of antiplatelet agents, and history of diabetes requiring medication.

resultsAmong 395 participants (mean age, 82.3 ± 6.5 years) included in this study, 75 patients experienced postoperative bleeding after tooth extraction. Logistic regression analysis revealed that the odds ratios for the vertical incision (18.400, p < 0.001), osteotomy (3.630, p = 0.00558), usage of surgical splints (1.860, p = 0.0395), and the mesiodistal width of the extracted tooth on a radiograph (1.060, p = 0.0261) were statistically significant.

conclusionsFor dental extraction in older patients receiving anticoagulants, postoperative bleeding is more likely to occur in patients with vertical incision, osteotomy, and posterior or multiple tooth extractions. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Dentists should consider suturing and adjunctive hemostatic procedures for patients undergoing vertical incision, osteotomy, and multiple tooth extractions while receiving anticoagulation therapy to minimize the risk of postoperative bleeding.
