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

introductionSeveral studies have repeatedly described an increased risk of thrombotic complications in patients with severe psoriasis. Rotational thromboelastometry (ROTEM) is a viscoelastic hemostatic test that allows sophisticated in-vivo evaluation of hemostasis in whole blood samples. This study aimed to assess hemostatic changes in psoriatic patients using ROTEM.

methodsThis pilot, observational, prospective study included 62 patients with moderate and severe psoriasis and a control group of 61 healthy blood donors. Blood samples were tested using the ROTEM Gamma analyser (Pentapharm GmbH, Munich, Germany) with INTEM, EXTEM, and FIBTEM reagents. We measured clotting time (CT), clot formation time (CFT), maximum clot firmness (MCF), amplitude at 10 and 20 min post-CT (A10, A20) and alpha angle.

resultsThe psoriatic patient group consisted of 31 men and 31 women, while the control group included 34 men and 27 women. Comparing patients with psoriasis and the control group, we identified statistically significant differences in the parameters: CT-EXTEM (74.8±1.4s vs. 69.7±1.4s; p < 0.05), MCF-EXTEM, A10-EXTEM, A20-EXTEM, CFT-INTEM, A10-INTEM, A20-INTEM, alfa-INTEM, CT-FIBTEM (67.3±1.2s vs. 62.8±1.2s; p < 0.05), CFT-FIBTEM and alfa-FIBTEM.

conclusionsIn this pilot study, compared to the controls, patients with moderate to severe psoriasis exhibited a shift in hemostasis towards a procoagulant state in ROTEM analysis.
