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

backgroundDeep venous thrombosis (DVT) of the lower extremities is one of the common complications for neurointensive care unit patients, which leads to increased morbidity and mortality. The purpose of our study was to explore risk factors and develop a prognostic nomogram for lower extremity DVT in neurointensive care unit patients.

methodsWe prospectively collected and analyzed the clinical data of 420 neurointensive care unit patients who received treatment in our institution between January 2018 and September 2019. Stepwise logistic regression was used to select predictors. R software was used to develop the prognostic nomogram. The performance of the nomogram was validated using a validation cohort of patients with data collected between October 2019 and March 2020.

resultsAmong 420 patients, 153 (36.4%) had lower extremity DVT and five (1.2%) had both DVT and pulmonary embolism (PE) in our study. Logistic regression analysis indicated that age [odds ratio (OR): 1.050; 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.029-1.071;

conclusionAge, GCS score, D-dimer level, muscle strength, and infection are independent predictors for lower extremity DVT. The nomogram is a reliable and convenient model to predict the development of lower extremity DVT in neurointensive care unit patients.
