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

Perioperative management of antithrombotic therapy in oral surgery represents an evolving paradigm. This critical review evaluates the contemporary scientific evidence that challenges the conventional practice of routinely discontinuing anticoagulants and/or antiplatelet agents to prevent postoperative bleeding. The traditional strategy carries an unacceptable risk of iatrogenic, sometimes severe, thromboembolic events. The aim of this systematic narrative review is to synthesize the current evidence (2015-2025) and to outline a new, patient-centered clinical framework that dynamically balances thromboembolic and hemorrhagic risks. Materials and methods: A systematic search of major databases (PubMed/MEDLINE, Scopus, Web of Science) identified relevant studies, structured according to the PICO framework. The search strategy prioritized high-level evidence, including clinical guidelines, systematic reviews, meta-analyses, randomized controlled trials, and prospective cohort studies published between January 2015 and November 2025. Results: The results reinforce an emerging consensus: the basis of safe management is the rigorous application of advanced local hemostasis techniques (e.g., prioritizing resorbable materials, sutures, topical hemostatic agents, and antifibrinolytics) and the use of perioperative decision-making algorithms. These measures allow, in most routine dental surgical procedures, the safe continuation of antithrombotic therapy, thus minimizing the thromboembolic risk without significantly increasing the risk of clinically significant bleeding. In the future, research should focus on optimizing materials science (novel biomaterials and controlled-release systems) and on standardizing and validating protocols in specific populations (e.g., patients on combination therapy or at extreme cardiovascular risk). This review argues that the adoption of this evidence-based model, with local hemostasis as a critical pillar, is essential for modern, ethical, and safe dental practice.
