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

Background: Recombinant human thrombopoietin (rhTPO) at a fixed dose of 300 U/kg/day for 2 weeks has demonstrated good efficacy and safety in adults with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). This trial aimed to develop a flexible and personalized rhTPO regimen that ensures efficacy and safety beyond previous fixed dose, with eltrombopag as an active comparator. Methods: The TE-ITP trial was conducted in 12 centers across China. Adult ITP patients with platelet count <30 × 10 Findings: Between November 22, 2022 and January 16, 2024, the trial enrolled 157 patients (median age: 52 years; 104 women): 105 and 52 in the rhTPO and eltrombopag groups, respectively. Baseline platelet count was <20 × 10 Interpretation: The optimised rhTPO regimen, with individualized dosing based on platelet response, showed faster platelet elevation and lower bleeding risk than eltrombopag. Funding: This trial was supported by grants from the CAMS Innovation Fund for Medical Sciences (CIFMS) (2023-I2M-2-007), Noncommunicable Chronic Diseases-National Science and Technology Major Project (2023ZD0500803), National Natural Science Foundation of China (82430010), Tianjin Municipal Science and Technology Commission Grant (24ZXZSSS00230).
