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

Purpose: This study aimed to elucidate the factors that affect the dynamics of blood D-dimer in ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS). Methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records from two hospitals and extracted data obtained during assisted reproductive technology and OHSS treatment. Blood D-dimer levels during hospitalization were plotted against body weight. Other factors possibly related to blood D-dimer levels were also analyzed. Results: The analysis included 10 patients with OHSS admitted between January 2013 and June 2023. In all patients, blood D-dimer levels increased significantly when they convalesced from OHSS and lost weight. None of the patients showed clinical signs of thrombosis, which was confirmed using imaging tests in 8 of 10 patients. Two patients underwent cell-free and concentrated ascites reinfusion therapy (CART), and their blood D-dimer levels increased dramatically after the procedure. Conclusion: Weight change and CART are associated with blood D-dimer dynamics in OHSS. Our results show that elevated blood D-dimer levels in patients with OHSS do not always represent the presence of thrombosis. Reinfusion of pooled D-dimer in ascites may explain the D-dimer surge during the recovery phase or after CART in these patients. Our study provides new perspectives on the clinical implications of D-dimer during OHSS.
