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

A 49-year-old male patient presented due to recurrent pain and swelling in the left leg. The patient had had deep venous thrombosis with pulmonary embolism 5 years previously. Since then, he had been treated with Vit-k-antagonists. Pronounced paraumbilical collateral circulation of unknown origin was striking. Doppler sonographic evaluation pointed to May-Thurner syndrome. This was confirmed by phlebography. Venous stenting of the stenosis in the left iliac vein achieved long-term symptom improvement. This case report is intended to draw attention to the rare May-Thurner syndrome as an important differential diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis and, at the same time, identify diagnostic and therapeutic treatment strategies.
