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

Edoxaban is an oral, highly selective, direct factor X-inhibitor approved by the European Medical Agency for the prevention of stroke in non-valvular atrial fibrillation. Edoxaban is contraindicated in patients with severe hepatic insufficiency and, among adverse effects, serum bilirubin level and gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase elevation are described as common events. We report the case of an 82-year-old man with hepatocellular carcinoma who developed a fatal vanishing bile duct syndrome (VBDS) a few weeks after the administration of edoxaban for non-valvular atrial fibrillation. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report to describe a case of acute VBDS possibly related to edoxaban.
