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

BackgroundTranexamic acid (TA), a synthetic lysine derivative, is known for its antifibrinolytic effect and potential to reduce bleeding in surgeries like arthroplasty, cardio-aortic procedures, and liver transplantation. This meta-analysis seeks to provide robust clinical evidence on TA's effectiveness in reducing blood loss and transfusion needs during orthotopic liver transplantation.MethodsThe systematic review and meta-analysis included the relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) retrieved from PubMed, EMBASE, Web of Science, Cochrane, and SCOPUS databases until August 2024. The meta-analysis was done using (RevMan 5.4.1). PROSPERO ID: CRD42024589151.ResultsOur meta-analysis of seven RCTs with 1875 patients found no significant differences between TA and control groups in total red blood cell units transfused (MD: -3.74 units; 95% CI [-8.49, 1.01];
