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

Venous thromboembolism (VTE) including deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism is a frequent complication in postoperative setting. Despite advances in the diagnostic options conformation or exclusion of VTE remains a challenge. Preoperative assessment of thromboembolic risk factors may be helpful in estimating postoperative thromboembolic risk. Laboratory markers such as D-Dimer provide only limited information as they are modified by surgical intervention. Venous ultrasonography seems in postoperative setting a wide applicable diagnostic tool. However limited interpretation may be caused by bandage or oedema. Contrast venography und CT pulmonary angiography may be limited due to the nephrotoxic side effects of contrast agents especially in multimorbid patients. The development in magnetic resonance technology may overwhelm such problems. However magnetic implantates may also limit this modern diagnostic tool.
