Evaluation of Bleeding Time after Dental Extractions during Uninterrupted Single or Dual Antiplatelet Treatment - A Comparative Study.
Article in Annals of maxillofacial surgery. 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
Introduction: This study aimed to assess the duration of bleeding after dental extractions amongst subjects with uninterrupted single antiplatelet therapy and dual antiplatelet therapy (DAPT) and to compare the bleeding time after dental extractions amongst those subjects undergoing various antiplatelet therapies. Materials and Methods: Post-extraction bleeding time was categorised as within 30 min, within 1 h and within 24 h. The bleeding time in different categories was compared and analysed using Chi-square. The antiplatelet agents assessed were aspirin, clopidogrel, ticagrelor and a combination of aspirin with clopidogrel and ticagrelor. Results: Bleeding time was significantly higher in patients under DAPT, compared to those under single antiplatelet therapy, and with an increase in the number of teeth extracted, there was an increase in bleeding time. All cases with prolonged bleeding could be managed with local haemostatic measures. Discussion: Simple extraction can be undertaken safely in patients under single antiplatelet therapy, considering that local haemostatic measures are available for use in the setup to control bleeding if necessary. Patients under DAPT are better managed if the therapy is altered, as there was a definite increase in bleeding time in patients under DAPT after extraction.
