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

backgroundPerinatal hypoxia may result in coagulation dysfunction. Diminished blood flow or oxygen to the fetus/neonate during the perinatal period can cause bone marrow and liver function impairment, leading to thrombocytopenia, impaired synthesis of clotting and fibrinolytic factors, and increased destruction of platelets in the small blood vessels. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the hemostatic status of newborns with perinatal hypoxia via the non-activated thromboelastometry (NATEM) assay in cord blood samples.

methods134 hypoxic neonates born in our maternity unit over a 1.5-year period were enrolled in this observational cohort study, and 189 healthy neonates served as the control group. Participation in the study was voluntary and parents signed informed consent prior to recruitment. Demographic and clinical data were recorded on admission, and the NATEM method was performed on cord blood samples. The following NATEM values were evaluated: clotting time (CT), alpha angle (α-angle), clot formation time (CFT), clot amplitude at 5 and 10 min. (A5, A10), maximum clot firmness (MCF), clot lysis index at 60 min. after CT (LI60), and maximum clot elasticity (MCE). Statistical analysis was conducted utilizing the SAS for Windows 9.4 software platform.

resultsNeonates with perinatal hypoxia exhibited decreased fibrinolytic potential in comparison to healthy neonates, as indicated by increased LI60, and this difference was statistically significant (LΙ60: 94 (92-96) Vs 93 (91-95),

conclusionOur findings indicate decreased fibrinolytic potential in hypoxic neonates in comparison to healthy neonates, suggesting that NATEM could serve as an effective tool for promptly identifying hemostasis dysfunction in this group of neonates.
