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

Bleeding in the gastrointestinal tract in patients with von Willebrand disease continues to pose a therapeutic challenge for clinicians. It is associated with significant morbidity and mortality and represents the major unmet need in this disease. Defective angiogenesis in the gut is primarily responsible, resulting in angiodysplastic malformations making bleeding notoriously refractory to standard replacement therapy. A substantial body of evidence now shows that von Willebrand factor has a role in the regulation of angiogenesis but the mechanisms responsible for the formation of vascular malformations remain incompletely understood. Data from the wider field of vascular malformations may lend insight and point to novel therapeutic approaches. Here we review evidence linking von Willebrand factor to angiodysplasia, the associated molecular mechanisms and the implications for therapy.
