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

The aim of this review is to highlight all the factors that associate venous thromboembolism (VTE) with aging. Elderly people are characterized by a higher incidence of thrombosis taking into account the co-existing comorbidities, complications and fatality that arise. Based on the Virchow triad, pathophysiological aspects of venous stasis, endothelium injury and hypercoagulability in elderly people (≥65 years) are described in detail. More precisely, venous wall structure, nitric oxide (NO) and endothelin-1 expression are impaired in this age group. Furthermore, an increase in high-molecular-weight kininogen (HMWK), prekallikrein, factors V, VII, VIII, IX and XI, clot lysis time (CLT) and von Willebrand factor (vWF) is observed. Age-dependent platelet dysfunction and changes in anticoagulant factors are also illustrated. A "low-grade inflammation stage" is delineated as a possible risk factor for thrombosis in the elderly. Consequently, clinical implications for frail elderly people related to diagnosis, treatment, bleeding danger and VTE recurrence emerge. We conclude that aging is an acquired thrombotic factor closely related to pathophysiological changes.
