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

Glanzmann thrombasthenia (GT) is a common type of bleeding disorder, with a prevalence of 1/10,000 in Al Madinah, Saudi Arabia. GT causes bleeding owing to the lack of platelet aggregation associated with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa deficiency, which is characterized by mucocutaneous bleeding symptoms, such as epistaxis, gingival bleeding, and menorrhagia. Gastrointestinal angiodysplasia (GIAD) is a rare presentation of GT, where eight cases have been reported. GIAD is a vascular malformation of the digestive system caused by abnormal angiogenesis. Treatment of GIAD include surgical resection, electrocoagulation, embolization, and medical therapy with octreotide, thalidomide, and bevacizumab. GIAD has a high tendency to recur. We report the cases of eight patients of different ages who were diagnosed with GT and presented with gastrointestinal bleeding.
