Platelet-rich fibrin ensures hemostasis after single-tooth removal under factor Xa inhibitors - a clinical prospective randomized split-mouth study.
Trial report in Clinical oral investigations, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
objectivesIn this prospective, double-blinded, randomized split-mouth study, the local hemostatic effect of platelet-rich fibrin (PRF) inserted into the extraction socket in patients taking factor Xa (FXa) inhibitors (apixaban, rivaroxaban, edoxaban) was compared to a hemostatic gelatine sponge (GS) as the "therapeutic gold standard" without withdrawal of oral anticoagulant therapy. MATERIALS AND
methodsSingle-tooth extraction was conducted under local anesthesia in n = 21 patients using a split-mouth design (42 teeth). Using a double-blind approach, the extraction socket on one side of the jaw was filled with PRF and on the other with a GS. Bleeding was assessed immediately after surgery, in 30 min, 1 h, 1.5 h, and on follow-up appointments in 24 h and on the 7th day.
resultsIn 67% of cases, mild postoperative oozing could be stopped 30-90 min after tooth extraction via gauze pressure without any delayed bleeding. Concerning bleeding events, there was no difference among the PRF and GS groups and no significant difference among rivaroxaban, apixaban, and edoxaban (all p > 0.15).
conclusionPRF and GS are reliable hemostatic methods in postextraction sockets of patients taking FXa inhibitors. CLINICAL RELEVANCE: Consequently, there is no need to discontinue FXa inhibitors because of a single-tooth removal, eliminating the risk of thrombus formation.
