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

Thromboelastography (TEG) and rotational thromboelastometry are emerging technologies that are gaining increasing acceptance in the medical field to evaluate the coagulation status of patients on an individual level by assessing dynamic clot formation. TEG has been proven to reduce blood product use as well as improve patient outcomes in a variety of medical settings, including trauma and surgery due to the expediated nature of the test as well as the ability to determine specific deficiencies present in whole blood that are otherwise undetectable with traditional coagulation studies. Currently, no guidelines or recommendations are in place for the utilization of TEG in interventional or diagnostic radiology although access to TEG has become increasingly common in recent years. This manuscript presents a review of prior literature on the technical aspects of TEG as well as its use in various fields and explains the normal TEG-tracing parameters. Common hemodynamic abnormalities and their effect on the TEG tracing are illustrated, and the appropriate treatments for each abnormality are briefly mentioned. TEG has the potential to be a useful tool for determining the hemodynamic state of patients in both interventional and diagnostic radiology, and further research is needed to determine the value of these tests in the periprocedural setting.
