Management Strategies for Descending Thoracic Aortic Thrombus: A Review of the Literature.
Review in Innovations (Philadelphia, Pa.). The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Descending thoracic aortic thrombus (DTAT) is an under-recognized source of systemic emboli with potential catastrophic consequences. Imaging modalities such as echocardiography, computed tomography, magnetic resonance imaging, and angiography can help identify and characterize the extent of embolic events. Established guidelines regarding the management of DTAT are currently lacking. Multiple treatment modalities are available; however, the effectiveness of each approach remains to be determined. In this study, we performed a review to examine the clinical presentation, diagnostic methods and findings, and outcomes of various treatment options for patients with DTAT. Medical management is the least invasive and most frequently chosen initial approach, offering a high reported success rate, whereas endovascular therapy can have a role in thrombus exclusion should conservative management fail.
