Risk factors for postoperative proximal deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery: analysis of a multicenter randomized controlled trial.
Trial report in Surgery today, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
purposePostoperative venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a major and potentially fatal postoperative complication of colorectal cancer surgery. However, there is uncertainty about the necessity for anticoagulant prophylaxis to prevent VTE after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery because of its associated relatively lower incidence. Currently, anticoagulant therapy is considered mainly for patients at high risk of the development of VTE. Focusing on proximal deep vein thrombosis (DVT)/ pulmonary embolism (PE), we aimed to identify those cases at high risk of the development of fatal VTE.
methodsWe performed an exploratory retrospective analysis to identify the risk factors for postoperative proximal DVT and PE after laparoscopic colorectal cancer surgery in patients included in our prospective trial.
resultsA logistic regression analysis revealed factors that could predict the onset of proximal DVT/PE in patients with colorectal cancer. Blood loss and tumor location were identified as the predictors of proximal DVT/PE.
conclusionsPatients with rectal cancer and those with excessive blood loss during colon cancer surgery must be monitored carefully for signs of VTE and especially proximal DVT/PE, after laparoscopic surgery.
