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

Background: Dysregulated host response is an important cause of critical illness. Coagulation reaction is the most primitive response and can be used to assess patient status. Coagulation reactions may be amplified in very old patients (VOPs). This study aimed to demonstrate coagulation reactions in critically ill VOPs by linking cytokines, coagulation, and fibrinolytic processes. Methods: We analyzed 33 critically ill VOPs admitted to our hospital, with an average age of 91.97. Laboratory test results were collected and double checked. In-hospital mortality, Intensive Care Unit (ICU) stay, and length of in-hospital stay (LOS)-associated variables were assessed using a generalized additive mix model. Smooth curves and interaction tests were used to quantify statistical interactions. Results: The in-hospital mortality rate was 45.5% in this study. The D-dimer level was correlated with ICU stay [risk ratio (RR), 1.39; 95% confidential interval (CI), 1.16-1.67] and LOS (RR, 1.75; 95% CI, 1.19-2.57). Other function or quantity indices, such as platelet (PLT), prothrombin time (PT), activated partial prothrombin time (APTT), and thrombomodulin (TM), were all correlated with clinical outcomes. After the link between coagulation reaction and the outcomes was constructed, it was revealed that, compared to lower level of IL-6, under high level of IL-6, elevated TM was likely to be associated with tissue plasminogen activator inhibitor complex (t-PAIC) elevation, which probably promoted the production of D-dimer (RR, 3.216; 95% CI, 1.840-4.592). Conclusion: D-dimer levels are associated with outcomes in VOPs with critical illness. There is a certain link between inflammatory cytokines and the coagulation process. Under high IL-6 levels, the elevated TM may contribute to the increased t-PAIC, which contributes to the higher D-dimer level. Conversely, under low IL-6 levels, elevated TM levels are associated with reduced t-PAIC levels.
