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
objectivesVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is often a problematic complication in patients with gynecological cancer. Despite increasing opportunities to use direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) to treat VTE, there are no reports on the therapeutic outcomes of DOACs in patients with gynecological cancer; however, there are some studies on cancer patients in general. We retrospectively examined the efficacy and safety of using DOACs to treat VTE in such patients.
methodsThe study cohort comprised 43 patients with gynecological cancer and VTE who received treatment between May 2005 and April 2016. They were divided into two groups: DOACs used (DOAC group, n=21) and only unfractionated heparin (UFH) and warfarin used (standard group, n=22). The rates of improvement and recurrence of VTE and incidence of adverse events were compared between these groups.
resultsAt 6 months, the VTE of 85% of patients in the DOAC group and of 75% in the standard group had improved (
conclusionsRates of VTE improvement and of recurrence of VTE and adverse events did not differ significantly between the study groups.
