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

Idiopathic internal jugular vein thrombosis (IJVT) is a rarity that we must quickly identify and manage, as it may have severe consequences such as cerebral venous sinus thrombosis (CVST). CVST might be fatal unless it is managed promptly. However, due to its rarity, clinicians are often unfamiliar with the presentation of this pathology. We report an unusual finding of IJVT in a 53-year-old female patient who presented with a cervical mass on the left side to our otolaryngology outpatient clinic. A cervical ultrasound and computed tomography (CT) confirmed the diagnosis of IJVT. An extensive workout ruled out thrombophilia, CVST, cardiovascular diseases, head and neck cancers, and urinogenital tract neoplasms. The symptoms resolved under treatment with anticoagulation.
