Waist Training Corset: An Unusual Cause of Acute Lower Limb Ischemia.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the 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.
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
Acute limb ischemia (ALI) can occur due to many causes. This article illustrates a novel case of a very rare presentation and etiology of acute lower extremity ischemia. This case involves a middle-aged female with a history of smoking and obesity who presented with right lower extremity (RLE) pain. The patient had undergone a liposuction procedure a few days prior to her presentation and had been wearing a waist training corset. The patient was found to have multivessel thrombotic occlusive plaques starting from the right common iliac to the right tibial arteries. She was fully worked up and no other etiologies of her presentation was found. Thus, we concluded that her presentation was very likely precipitated by wearing the training corset, leading to right iliac artery thrombosis or perhaps a formal iliac atherosclerotic plaque destabilization and ipsilateral limb showering with athero-thrombi.
