Analysis of risk factors for venous thromboembolism in patients after thoracic surgery: A clinical study of 167 cases.
Article in Turk gogus kalp damar cerrahisi dergisi, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. It is linked to trial NCT06729021 (Predictive Efficacy of Modified Caprini Score and D-Dimer for the Evaluation and Management of Lower Extremity Venous Thrombosis Among Cardiothoracic Surgery Patients in Baghdad), which is not on this 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.

Abstract
backgroundThis study aims to identify risk factors of venous thromboembolism in the patients undergoing thoracic surgery.
methodsA total of 167 patients (107 males, 60 females; mean age 56.7±16.8 years; range 16 to 81 years) who underwent thoracic surgery between September 2015 and December 2016 were included in this study. D-dimer and C-reactive protein values were analyzed and clinical data recorded. The patients received color Doppler ultrasound and thoracic computed tomography before and after surgery. The risk factors for venous thromboembolism were analyzed.
resultsOf the patients, 57 (34.1%) developed venous thromboembolism after thoracic surgery, among whom two patients developed pulmonary embolism and another 55 developed deep vein thrombosis. Age, D-dimer, operation time, and body mass index of venous thromboembolism patients were significantly higher than non-venous thromboembolism patients. There was no significant difference in the C-reactive protein values between the two patient groups. Age, smoking history, operation time, and body mass index were found to be the risk factors of venous thromboembolism. There was a significant difference in the incidence of venous thromboembolism among different surgeries. The patients who underwent esophagectomy had the highest incidence of thrombosis.
conclusionAge, smoking history, operation time and body mass index are independent risk factors for venous thromboembolism. A special attention should be given to the patients undergoing esophagectomy to prevent the development of venous thromboembolism.
