A floating thrombus detected by CT in the descending aorta in an obese patient: A possible genetic-environmental interaction.

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
A floating thrombus in a nonaneurysmal, nonatherosclerotic aorta is a rare finding and may represent an unusual source of systemic embolism. Less than 130 cases have been reported in the literature. We describe a rare case of aortic floating thrombus in the descending aorta and the proximal portion of the suprarenal abdominal aorta detected by computed tomography angiography in a 50-year-old woman who was admitted to our emergency room with epigastric abdominal pain. The computed tomography angiography also showed some defects in the subsegmentary pulmonary artery branches along with a splenic infarction with splenic artery and vein thrombi, and a left renal thrombus. On genetic testing the patient resulted heterozygous for the polymorphism for 5,10-methylentetrahydrofolate reductase C677T polymorphism and also with homozygous deletion alleles of the angiotensin-converting enzyme gene. The aortic floating thrombus resolved during anticoagulant therapy after 4 weeks.
