Incidence of venous thromboembolism after robotic-assisted hysterectomy in obese patients with endometrial cancer: do we need extended prophylaxis?
Article in Journal of robotic surgery, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Robotic surgery for gynecologic malignancy is associated with a lower rate of venous thromboembolism (VTE) than laparotomy. Obese patients represent a particularly high-risk group for VTE, but prior studies tend to focus on patients with a much lower BMI and without extended VTE prophylaxis. Our objective was to examine the role of extended thromboprophylaxis in obese patients who underwent robotic-assisted surgery for endometrial cancer. We conducted a retrospective cohort study of obese patients (BMI ≥ 35 kg/m
