Splenic Vein Thrombosis: A Case Series of Consequential Chronic Pancreatitis and Sequential Myeloproliferative Disorder.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
We present a case series of two patients with splenic vein thrombosis (SVT), a relatively uncommon condition supposed to occur in the context of pancreatitis or pancreatic malignancies. Splenic vein thrombosis may also be seen in cases of chronic pancreatitis, as in one of our patients. At times, splenic vein thrombosis may present with an incidental, isolated finding of gastric varices on computed tomography pulmonary angiogram (CTPA) while investigating for pulmonary embolus; such a result should prompt further investigation to rule out associated splenic vein thrombosis in a sequence. We attempt to highlight the importance of performing a blood count and hematocrit, supplementary to a liver screen, in another patient where the cause was not related to liver disease, but to myeloproliferative disorder, which resulted in a hyper-thrombotic state and splenic vein thrombosis as a consequence.
