Association between hypertension and deep vein thrombosis after orthopedic surgery: a meta-analysis.
Synthesis in European journal of medical research, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 32 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
backgroundWe aimed to analyze the association between hypertension and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) after orthopedic surgery.
methodsRelevant studies were identified by a search of PubMed, Embase, China National Knowledge Infrastructure, Wanfang, the Chinese Biomedical Literature, and Weipu database until December 2015. The association between hypertension and DVT after orthopedic surgery was assessed by pooled odds ratios (ORs) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs). Heterogeneity was evaluated by the Chi-square test based on Q statistic and I(2) statistics. Finally, publication bias was evaluated by Egger's test.
resultsA total of 16 articles with 68,955 males and 53,057 females were eventually identified. Studies yielded effects for homogeneous (Q = 38.41, P = 0.0008, and I(2) = 60.9%). Meta-analysis showed that hypertension was associated with DVT orthopedic surgery (OR 2.89, 95% CI 2.18-3.83, Z = 7.38, P < 0.05). No statistical evidence of publication bias was found among studies (t = 1.90, P = 0.08). The funnel plot was symmetry, and the results were reliable.
conclusionsHypertension may promote DVT after orthopedic surgery, and may be an important risk factor of DVT occurrence.
