Navigating the Challenges of Factor X Deficiency: A Case Study.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
The clotting pathway involves intrinsic and extrinsic pathways converging into a common pathway. These pathways require activated factors that sequentially convert prothrombin to thrombin, which then converts fibrinogen to fibrin, forming a stable clot. Clotting factor deficiency impairs this cascade leading to excessive bleeding or bruising due to insufficient clot formation. Here, we present the case of a 47-year-old female who initially complained of epigastric pain. By the third day of admission, she experienced four to five episodes of bleeding gums, resulting in a blood loss of approximately 300 mL. The patient exhibited abnormal prothrombin time (PT) and international normalized ratio (INR) values, leading to a diagnosis of Factor X (FX) deficiency upon further evaluation. This case report emphasizes the need to diagnose coagulopathies such as FX deficiency and how early diagnosis will help not only in patient care and management but also in screening family members who may be affected.
