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

Lower limb deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is not an uncommon postoperative complication of spinal fusion surgery. However, the related risk factors identified in previous studies remain controversial. This study aimed to investigate risk factors for lower limb DVT in patients with single-level lumbar fusion surgery. Between January 2010 and December 2016, a total of 710 patients undergoing lumbar fusion were recruited for this study, including 172 males and 538 females (aged 18-75 years). Deep vein thrombosis was detected by ultrasonography. Accordingly, patients were divided into the DVT group and the non-DVT group and compared in terms of operative data, underlying diseases, and biochemical data. Additionally, logistic regression analysis was performed to identify risk factors for lower limb DVT. The incidence of lower limb DVT was 11.8% (84 of 710 cases). Five patients were symptomatic, with lower limb pain and swelling. Two patients developed pulmonary embolism and 1 died. Binary logistic regression indicated that advanced age (
