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.
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
backgroundPatients undergoing treatment with antiplatelet or anticoagulant drugs are attending dental consultations. Therefore, it has become essential to evaluate the patient before treatment and to conduct a thorough medical history. The goal of this study is to analyze the patients attending a dental clinic over a period of 6 months to determine how many are taking antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications, what dental treatment they seek, what hemostatic measures are taken, and whether they suffer hemorrhagic complications as a result of the treatment. This will help to prevent such complications by applying appropriate protocols, especially in the field of oral surgery. MATERIAL AND
methodsOver a six-month period, 867 patients attended a dental clinic in Madrid. Of these, 43 were taking antiplatelet agents or anticoagulants. A descriptive statistical analysis was conducted to gather data on age, gender, medication, dental treatment received, and hemorrhagic complications.
resultsOnly 4.9% of the patients attending the dental clinic were taking antiplatelet or anticoagulant medications. Specifically, 53.48% were taking antiplatelet agents, 34.8% were taking direct oral anticoagulants, and 11.62% were on vitamin K antagonist anticoagulants. After applying the appropriate clinical protocol in each case, only one patient experienced postoperative bleeding, which was not severe.
conclusionsBased on the results, it may not be necessary to withdraw antiplatelet or anticoagulant therapy due to the low incidence and non-severity of complications in simple dental procedures.
