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

Thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP) is a life-threatening emergency. Congenital TTP (cTTP) and immune-mediated TTP (iTTP) are caused by an inherited severe deficiency of, or immune-mediated destruction of the ADAMTS-13 enzyme, respectively. Pregnancy is recognized as a trigger for both subtypes of this condition. Until recently, the treatment for TTP in pregnancy has involved therapeutic plasma exchange and immunosuppression or plasma infusion. Here, we report 3 cases of TTP in pregnancy: 2 women with cTTP, treated throughout pregnancy with recombinant ADAMTS-13 (rADAMTS-13), and 1 with refractory iTTP, where rADAMTS-13 was used in place of ongoing plasma exchange. All pregnancies resulted in excellent fetomaternal outcomes.
