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.

Abstract

introductionHaemophilia treatment is costly and only 25% of patients receive adequate care. Although not optimal, Factor VIII (FVIII) low-dose prophylaxis (LDP) may reduce annual joint bleeding rates. Understanding FVIII usage, collected through the Web-Accessible Population Pharmacokinetic Service-Hemophilia (WAPPS-Hemo) platform, and its association with Gross National Income per capita (GNI) and Universal Health Coverage index (UHCI) may provide insights in global disparities.

aimsTo provide insights in FVIII use to advocate for LDP in low-income countries by providing: (i) statistical summary of FVIII usage, LDP prevalence, GNI and UHCI in WAPPS-Hemo in 2017-2023; (ii) estimation of the relationship between LDP probability (P

methodsDescriptive statistics/graphical summaries for (i) and (iii), mixed-effects logistic regression for (ii).

resultsData from 6223 severe haemophilia patients (ages 0.1-92 years) showed that 18% and 32% of countries used ≤1% LDP infusions in children and adults. LDP prevalence rose annually, peaking at 7% for children and 14% for adults. GNI was found lower in LDP-prevalent countries in children. In both children and adults, P

conclusionUnderrepresentation of low-resource countries in WAPPS-Hemo underscores the financial challenges in haemophilia treatment. The association between GNI/UHCI and P
