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

This study was designed to identify and assess risk factors for portal vein thrombosis (PVT) in patients with cirrhosis. A total of 98 cirrhosis patients with PVT were identified and 101 cirrhosis patients without PVT were chosen as the control group in this retrospective study. Several variables were measured and the two groups PVT and non-PVT were compared statistically. PVT was identified in 98 patients (10%). Significant differences in hematocrit, international normalized ratio, albumin, bilirubin and glucose were determined between the groups (P<0.05). Out of the thrombophilic risk factors in the patients with PVT factor V Leiden was identified in 8.8%, prothrombin gene 6.6% and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase 2.2%. There was no difference in survival time between groups (P>0.05).
