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.

Abstract

Background: Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) can provide useful insights into patient perception of concizumab, an anti-tissue factor pathway inhibitor monoclonal antibody intended for once-daily, subcutaneous prophylaxis for hemophilia A (HA) or hemophilia B (HB), with and without inhibitors. Objectives: To evaluate PROs from the phase 3 explorer8 study (NCT04082429). Methods: Male patients aged ≥12 years with HA/HB without inhibitors were enrolled and randomized 1:2 to no prophylaxis/on-demand treatment (arm 1) or concizumab prophylaxis (arm 2) or allocated to concizumab prophylaxis (arms 3 and 4). PRO questionnaires included the 36-item short-form health survey version 2, Haemophilia Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults, Hemophilia Treatment Experience Measure, and Haemophilia Patient Preference Questionnaire. Results: Estimated treatment difference for change in 36-item short-form health survey version 2 "bodily pain" and "physical functioning" from baseline to week 24 between patients in arms 1 and 2 was 9.5 points (95% CI, 2.4 to 16.7) and 0.3 points (95% CI, -5.1 to 5.6), respectively. Estimated treatment difference at week 24 between patients in arms 1 and 2 was -18.0 points (95% CI, -26.4 to -9.5) for Haemophilia Quality of Life Questionnaire for Adults "total score" and -16.8 points (95% CI, -32.2 to -1.4) for "physical health." Hemophilia Treatment Experience Measure and Haemophilia Patient Preference Questionnaire results favored concizumab prophylaxis over no prophylaxis or previous treatment. Conclusion: PRO data from the phase 3 explorer8 study provided additional support for concizumab prophylaxis compared with no prophylaxis as a treatment option for patients with HA/HB.
