Treatment of venous thromboembolism and long-term prevention of recurrence: present treatment options and ximelagatran.
Review in Drugs, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Despite the effectiveness of anticoagulant therapy for the treatment of acute venous thromboembolism and the prevention of recurrent venous thromboembolism, existing antithrombotic therapies are suboptimal. Unfractionated heparin, low-molecular-weight heparin (LMWH) and warfarin have practical limitations and carry the risk of treatment-related adverse events that restrict their clinical benefits and reduce cost-effectiveness. Efforts to achieve optimal venous thromboembolism prophylaxis by modifying the intensity of oral warfarin treatment have produced equivocal results, and there is a need for new, efficacious antithrombotic drugs providing predictable, well-tolerated oral dosing without the need for coagulation monitoring. Such agents would ideally have no significant food or drug interactions, and be suitable for both short- and long-term treatment. Ximelagatran, the first oral direct thrombin inhibitor, has the potential to fulfill many of the unmet needs in the management of venous thromboembolism.
