Intracardiac thrombosis in polycythemia vera.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
A man in his late 60s presented with symptoms for a few months of itching and head ache after shower. Physical examination was unremarkable except for ruddy complexion and splenomegaly. Complete blood count showed haemoglobin of 18.1 g/dL and haematocrit of 56.6%. To rule out secondary causes of erythrocytosis, such as congenital heart disease with a right to left shunt, a transthoracic echocardiogram was performed, which showed normal left ventricular function with an apical area of dyskinesis and a large left ventricular apical thrombus measuring 3.0 cm×2.0 cm. Further laboratory investigations showed low erythropoietin level and Jak V617F mutation consistent with the diagnosis of polycythemia vera. He was treated with aspirin, enoxaparin, phlebotomy and hydroxyurea with no reported complications during the stay.
