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

Introduction: Andexanet alfa shows excellent hemostatic efficacy in treating intracranial hemorrhage (ICH) during Xa inhibitor therapy. However, its optimal use remains uncertain. Aim of the study: This study aims to evaluate our clinical experience in managing Xa inhibitor-related ICH to clarify its appropriate application. Material and methods: This study was conducted as an observational, non-interventional study. We observed 63 cases of ICH in patients receiving anticoagulation therapy with apixaban, rivaroxaban, or edoxaban. After excluding 14 patients due to fatal outcomes or complete hemostasis, 49 patients were eligible for andexanet alfa administration. Results: The mean age and hematoma volume was 78 years and the 35ml, respectively. Based on patient characteristics and severity, andexanet alfa was administered to 23 patients, while 26 patients received usual care. Hemorrhage enlargement was absent in 22 cases (92.8%) in the andexanet group and in 22 cases (84.6%) in the usual care group. Hemorrhage expansion occurred in three cases from the usual care group, one patient undergoing emergency surgery and another died from uncontrollable intraoperative bleeding. Two patients (8.7%) in the andexanet group experienced thromboembolic events as adverse reactions. At 3 months, the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) was 3 or lower in 39% of the andexanet group and 50% of the standard care group. Conclusions: Although patient selection bias make it difficult to draw definitive conclusions, we recommend considering andexanet alfa administration for cases within several hours of the last Xa inhibitor dose to prevent neurological deterioration. Emergency surgical cases should also be eligible for andexanet alfa to ensure intraoperative safety. Further research is required to determine clinically appropriate indications for its use.
