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

backgroundVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is very rare in childhood. Nevertheless, its incidence has increased recently. This study aimed to identify risk factors for developing thrombosis in childhood cancers and other childhood diseases through the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database.

methodsData were extracted from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment Service database. Children and young adults from 1 month to 29 years of age were eligible, and 21,747 cases of VTE between January 2008 and December 2016 were identified.

resultsThe VTE incidence was high in children younger than 1 year of age. After 1 year of age, its incidence decreased rapidly and gradually increased. The VTE incidence for children between 0 and 1 year of age was 10.23-fold higher than that for those between 1 and 5 years of age. Annual VTE incidence increased by year. The age-standardized annual incidence rates were 9.98 per 100,000 population in 2008 and 22.53 per 100,000 population in 2016. The age-standardized annual incidence rate increased 2.25-fold during the 8 years. The lower extremity was the most common site of venous thrombosis.

conclusionThe incidence of VTE in a population younger than 30 years was 13.11 per 100,000 persons in Korea. We found a bimodal age distribution of the VTE incidence with peaks at infancy and again after 16 years. The incidence of portal vein thrombosis was high in infants, and infection and malignancy were the most common comorbidities in patients with VTE.
