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

rationaleThe drug batroxobin is utilized to enhance microcirculation by reducing fibrinogen levels, making it a treatment option for the acute stage of severe sudden sensorineural hearing loss (SSNHL). However, the efficacy of batroxobin defibrination remains controversial. It is crucial to also consider the potential thrombotic effects of batroxobin. This is the first report of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) in patients after treatment for SSNHL with batroxobin, aiming to enhance its clinical safety profile. PATIENT CONCERNS: A 61-year-old male patient presented with severe SSNHL in the left ear. During hospitalization, the plasma fibrinogen level remained consistently low following batroxobin treatment and subsequently led to AMI. DIAGNOSES: SSNHL, AMI.

interventionsPercutaneous coronary intervention surgery confirmed thrombus blockage in the middle segment of the right coronary artery, and the symptoms were relieved after thrombus removal. OUTCOMES: The patient was discharged from the hospital on the 5th day after surgery without any recurrence of AMI up to now. LESSONS: The pharmacology and toxicity of batroxobin are intricate, necessitating careful consideration of potential secondary thrombosis during treatment, particularly regarding fibrinogen levels.
