MAC Project-Monitoring Anticoagulant Therapy Observational Study: Rationale and Protocol.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Real-life studies complement data from registrative trials. Because of the delayed registration of direct oral anticoagulants in Italy, scarce real-life data on such treatments is available for the Italian population. The aim of the MAC project is to collect real-life clinical information in unselected patients given oral anticoagulants for venous thromboembolism, during a 5-year follow-up period. This is a prospective-cohort, multi-center, observational study performed in four Italian centers. The estimated samples size is 4,000 patients. The efficacy outcomes are: incidence of symptomatic recurrent venous thromboembolism and of post-thrombotic syndrome. The safety outcomes are: incidence of major bleeding, clinically relevant non-major bleeding, minor bleeding, serious adverse events, and mortality. The MAC project has the potential to improve our understanding of the epidemiology and of the therapeutic strategies adopted in Italian patients with venous thromboembolism.
