Impending rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm due to apixaban use.
Article in Journal of cardiology cases, 2021. 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
Direct oral anticoagulants (DOAC) are useful for preventing embolism and venous thrombosis in patients with atrial fibrillation. There are also reports that DOAC can dissolve existing intracardiac thrombus. Here, we report a case in which DOAC lysed a thrombus in an abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), resulting in impending rupture of the AAA. An 85-year-old woman was admitted to our hospital with a diagnosis of congestive heart failure. She has had atrial fibrillation and started taking DOAC. Computed tomography (CT) performed on admission revealed an AAA with a large amount of intraluminal thrombus (ILT). Fifty days after the start of DOAC, she visited our hospital with the chief complaint of severe abdominal pain. CT showed no enlargement of the AAA, but the ILT in the AAA had dissolved. She was diagnosed with an impending rupture of an AAA. She underwent emergency aortic replacement with a Y-shaped vascular prosthesis. When using DOAC in patients with aortic aneurysms with ILT, we need to be aware of the risk of the thrombus dissolving. <
