1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) continues to be a significant source of morbidity for surgical patients. Inferior vena cava (IVC) filter placement is indicated for DVT in patients who have contraindications to anticoagulation or anticoagulation failure. Over the last decade, there is an exponential increase in IVC filter placement with increased complications reported. These include IVC penetration, IVC occlusion, insertion complication and filter migration. We report a rare case of symptomatic duodenal perforation by an IVC filter migration. This case illustrates that even though IVC migration and perforation is a rare complication, it should be recognized as a potential cause for gastrointestinal (GI) symptoms in these patients.
