The efficacy and application of tranexamic acid in emergency medicine: Emergency Medicine Association of Türkiye clinical policy- 2024.

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 clinical policy of the Emergency Medicine Association of Türkiye (EMAT) provides guidance on the use of tranexamic acid (TXA) in emergency settings. TXA, an antifibrinolytic drug, is used to control bleeding by inhibiting plasminogen. Its applications have expanded from hemophilia and severe menstrual bleeding to include various forms of trauma and surgery-related bleeding. Despite its potential benefits, the use of TXA in emergency settings must be carefully evaluated due to its associated risks, including venous thromboembolism. This policy aimed to offer evidence-based recommendations on the indications and contraindications of TXA in different clinical scenarios encountered in the emergency departments. The guidelines were developed using the "Grading of Recommendations, Assessment, Development, and Evaluations" approach, incorporating systematic literature reviews, and expert consensus from the EMAT Research Committee. This document focuses on critical clinical questions regarding the efficacy and safety of TXA in situations such as gastrointestinal bleeding, multitrauma, traumatic brain injury, nontraumatic intracranial hemorrhage, hemoptysis, and epistaxis. By addressing these issues, the policy seeks to assist emergency physicians in making informed decisions about the use of TXA, ultimately aiming to improve the patient outcomes.
