Risk factors for venous thromboembolism and evaluation of the modified Caprini score in patients undergoing lung resection.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
backgroundThere is a high incidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) after lung resection, so it is necessary to identify the risk factors for VTE in these patients. It is also important to evaluate whether the modified Caprini score can accurately assess the risk of VTE in patients after lung resection.
methodsThis retrospective study included 437 patients undergoing lung resection between July 2016 and December 2017. All patients underwent lower extremities ultrasound before and after operation to determine the presence of the newly diagnosed VTE.
resultsForty-seven (10.8%) of the 437 patients were diagnosed with VTE after lung surgery. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age (OR, 2.04; 95% CI, 1.40-2.99), duration of operation (OR, 1.51; 95% CI, 1.08-2.12), lymphocyte count (OR, 0.28; 95% CI, 0.11-0.69), and D-dimer concentration (OR, 1.55; 95% CI, 1.22-1.97) were significantly associated with VTE in lung resection patients. The cut-off values for lymphocyte count and D-dimer concentration determined using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve were 1.15×10
conclusionsIn this study, we identified four independent factors for VTE after lung resection patients: age, duration of operation, lymphocyte count, and D-dimer. According to the modified Caprini score, there were fewer patients in the high-risk group, and the incidence of VTE not increased with the increase of risk. Better evaluation of operation time and D-dimer may help the modified Caprini score to better assess VTE risk in these patients.
