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

backgroundThe last 15 years have seen new extended half-life (EHL) recombinant FVIII/IX concentrates and nonreplacement therapy for haemophilia A (emicizumab) introduced in Europe. These changes affect FVIII/IX exposure in previously untreated patients (PUPs) and previously treated patients (PTPs) with severe haemophilia A and B (SHA and SHB) and may modify inhibitor development and/or detection.

aimTo report trends in treatment for severe haemophilia and concomitant changes in inhibitor incidence.

methodsBetween 2008 and 2022, 97 centres reported inhibitor development against FVIII/IX concentrates to the European Haemophilia Safety Surveillance System (EUHASS). Inhibitors were reported quarterly, and PUPs without inhibitor development annually. Cumulative inhibitor incidences (95% confidence intervals [CI]) were calculated for PUPs and incidence rates/1000 years (CI) for PTPs.

resultsBy 2022, SHA-PUPs (n = 1574) received emicizumab (44%), SHL-rFVIII (21.5%), pdFVIII (17.5%) and EHL-rFVIII (17%). SHB-PUPs (n = 236) received EHL-rFIX (79%) and SHL-rFIX (21%). SHA-PTPs (68,772 years) received EHL-rFVIII (31%), SHL-rFVIII (28%), emicizumab (25%), and pdFVIII (15%). SHB PTPs (11,185 years) received EHL-rFIX (69%), pdFIX (15%) and SHL-rFIX (15%). Observed Inhibitor incidence in SHA-PUPs decreased from 24% before 2016 to 6% in 2022 (p < 0.001), and potentially in SHB-PUPs too (from 9% to 3%; p = 0.066), but remained stable in SHA/SHB PTPs.

conclusionIn 2022, 44% of SHA-PUPs and 25% of SHA-PTPs received emicizumab prophylaxis. Concomitantly, observed inhibitor incidence reduced to 6% in SHA-PUPs. In SHB, EHL-rFIX treatment increased to 79% in SHB-PUPs and 69% in SHB-PTPs. Assessing inhibitor incidence for new concentrates is likely to be hampered by novel treatments causing delayed exposure to FVIII/FIX.
