Comprehensive evaluation of patients suspected with deep vein thrombosis using indirect CT venography with multi-detector row technology: from protocol to interpretation.
Review in The international journal of cardiovascular imaging, 2010. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
With the increased availability of multi-detector row CT, indirect CT venography has become an important non-invasive image modality for patients with suspected deep vein thrombosis. Use of indirect CT venography can not only diagnose/exclude deep vein thrombosis, but can also determine if there are other anomalies or diseases which might contribute to the patient's symptoms. In this pictorial essay, we introduce the scanning protocol, post-processing techniques, and interpretation algorithm used in widely available 64 multi-detector row technology. We discuss several cases, including deep vein thrombosis in acute and chronic stages, anatomic variation, vena cava filter, and collateral veins. Lastly, we consider alternative diagnoses including varicose veins, infection, prosthesis failure of arthroplasty, traumatic vessel injury, and other musculoskeletal conditions. Radiologists should be familiar with the comprehensive interpretation of indirect CT venography to facilitate differential diagnosis and further treatment decision.
