Deep Vein Thrombosis in Indian Cancer Patients Undergoing Major Thoracic and Abdomino-Pelvic Surgery.
Article in Indian journal of surgical oncology, 2016. 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
The aim of the study was to determine the incidence of postoperative deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in Indian patients undergoing surgery for thoracic and abdomino-pelvic malignancies. A prospective observational study was conducted in a tertiary care cancer centre in North India. Two hundred and fifty consecutive patients who underwent curative surgery for thoracic and abdomino-pelvic malignancies during the period March 2014 to March 2015 were enrolled in the study. Perioperative pharmacological antithrombotic prophylaxis was not prescribed to any of the patient as per the institutional protocol. All the patients underwent colour duplex ultrasound of the bilateral lower limbs - preoperatively to determine the baseline status, and on 7th and 28th day postoperatively to look for presence of DVT. None of the patient in the study cohort showed clinical or radiological evidence of lower limb deep vein thrombosis. Our study suggests very low incidence of deep vein thrombosis in Indian patients undergoing surgery for thoracic and abdomino-pelvic malignancy.
