Prevention and treatment of the post-thrombotic syndrome.

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
Post thrombotic syndrome (PTS) is a common chronic complication of deep vein thrombosis of the leg (DVT). Treatment options are limited therefore emphasis is placed on its prevention. Several risk factors have been recognized, but were so far not used for risk stratification or translation into prediction models. Early interventions did not yet result in more successful preventive treatment strategies; for the acute phase of DVT there is equipoise on the value of elastic compression, as well as on catheter directed thrombolysis. There are no drugs specifically targeted at PTS prevention. The use of anticoagulant medication such as direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) might decrease PTS incidence, but this needs to be corroborated. Both research into more effective treatment options as well as future PTS management may benefit from a uniform diagnostic strategy and the use of prediction rules to better allocate treatment and thereby increase treatment efficacy.
