Use of Andexanet Alfa to Reverse Heparin After Cardiopulmonary Bypass.
Article in Annals of thoracic surgery short reports, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Heparin is the primary anticoagulant used for cardiopulmonary bypass and requires reversal to prevent postoperative bleeding. Protamine sulfate is the only United States Food and Drug Administration-approved heparin reversal agent and therefore is routinely used after cardiopulmonary bypass. Severe intraoperative protamine reactions are infrequent but may preclude full heparin reversal. Andexanet alfa has demonstrated effective in vitro heparin reversal, but clinical use has not been reported. We review the preclinical data on andexanet alfa as a heparin reversal agent and report a clinical case of andexanet alfa infusion, with complete laboratory and clinical evidence of heparin reversal.
