Landmark trials in thrombotic vascular disease: a critical appraisal of potential practice-changing trials in 2016-2017.
Review in Internal and emergency medicine, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Recent years have witnessed an onslaught of large, multicenter, randomized controlled trials evaluating the prevention and management of thrombotic vascular diseases. While these trials have applied rigorous methodology to pragmatic and clinically relevant questions, several important gaps in knowledge remain. In this review, we critically appraise landmark studies in thrombosis published between 2016 and 2017 that address several ongoing areas of clinical uncertainty. Specifically, we review the role of endovascular therapy in the prevention of post-thrombotic syndrome following acute lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (ATTRACT trial), the efficacy of edoxaban as the first direct oral anticoagulant used for the treatment of cancer-associated thrombosis (HOKUSAI VTE-Cancer study), whether aspirin can be considered for thromboprophylaxis post-major orthopedic surgery (EPCAT-2 trial), and the need for anticoagulant therapy for treatment of isolated distal DVT (CACTUS trial). Using illustrative cases, we highlight the applicability of these trials to current practice and emphasize the unanswered questions that remain.
