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

Prospectively assess the incidence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) using Doppler Ultrasound, in patients receiving elective hip arthroscopy without pharmacologic/mechanical prophylaxis. One hundred and fifteen consecutive patients (mean 35.4 years, SD = 10.3) underwent elective hip arthroscopy. Patients with previous major risk factors for DVT were excluded. Signs/symptoms of DVT/pulmonary embolism were assessed at 2-week post-operatively. A bilateral whole leg Duplex color (Doppler) Ultrasonography was scheduled between 10- and 22-day post-op. The primary outcome was frequency of DVT. Secondary outcomes assessed surgical risk factors. One hundred and ten patients (mean = 34.3 years, SD = 10.1) did not get a DVT. Five patients (mean = 43.8 years, SD = 12.1) were diagnosed with a DVT, 2- to 22-day post-operatively. All DVT patients received arthroscopy in the supine position (
