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

introductionWe previously conducted a prospective, observational post-marketing surveillance study to assess the safety and effectiveness of four-factor prothrombin complex concentrate (4F-PCC) for rapid vitamin K antagonist (VKA) reversal in Japanese patients.

methodsThis subgroup analysis compared the safety, especially thromboembolic events (TEEs), and effectiveness of 4F-PCC by stratifying patients into two subgroups according to baseline international normalized ratio (INR) levels with < 2.0 and ≥ 2.0.

resultsOf 1271 eligible patients, 215 (17.9%) had INR < 2.0 and 987 (82.1%) had INR ≥ 2.0. Overall baseline characteristics were similar between groups; age (74.0 years vs 74.0 years), body mass index (22.1 kg/m

conclusionThis study supports the favorable tolerability and efficacy of 4F-PCC regardless of baseline INR (< 2.0 or ≥ 2.0), with a prompt reduction of INR and substantial hemostatic effectiveness in the real-world setting for patients requiring urgent VKA reversal, although no indicated 4F-PCC dose for VKA reversal exists for INR < 2.0 to date.
