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

A 19-year-old woman with a history of asthma presented with acute confusion following a near-drowning event 2 weeks prior to admission. She was found to have severe thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia (MAHA). The treatment for thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) was started on the day of admission due to high clinical suspicion. Subsequent workup confirmed a diagnosis of TTP with no clear etiology except the near-drowning incident. TTP following a near-drowning event has never been reported in the literature. Furthermore, she developed refractory TTP that required reinitiation of therapeutic plasma exchange and rituximab. After discharge, the patient had been doing well over a year of follow-up without remission.
