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 of reviewThis review provides an overview of the factor XI (FXI) inhibitor hypothesis for the development of novel anticoagulants which may be safer to those currently used in clinical practice and describes preliminary clinical data from phase 2 dose-ranging studies of patients with atrial fibrillation. RECENT

findingsRecent data from phase 2 dose ranging studies demonstrate substantial reductions in bleeding with FXI pathway inhibition compared with currently approved anticoagulants. However, larger studies are necessary to demonstrate efficacy of FXI inhibition for stroke prevention in atrial fibrillation. FXI pathway inhibition holds great promise for revolutionizing the landscape of anticoagulation for atrial fibrillation, primarily by reducing bleeding risk; however, further data are necessary to demonstrate efficacy.
