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

introductionCorrection of a prolonged CK-TEG R-time requires the administration of fresh frozen plasma (FFP). However, the relationship between the volume required to normalize the R-time and the patient's plasma volume (PV

methods30 patients receiving FFP to normalize their R-times were analyzed from the standpoint of sex distribution and R-time response to the administration of FFP. PV

resultsFemales had a smaller PV

conclusionsWe conclude that: 1) The amount of FFP required to normalize the R-time is lower than the recommended dose of 10-20 ml/kg: 2) 6.8 ml/kg of FFP, corresponding to an initial administration of two units of FFP (~ 500 ml) will provide an increase of 15.6% in the concentration of coagulation factors sufficient to normalize the R-time: 3) The assessment of PV
