Tumor thrombus formation in the right common iliac vein after radical proctectomy in a patient with rectal cancer: a case report.
Article in BMC surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundIntravascular tumor thrombi are mainly found in patients with liver cancer or renal carcinoma but rarely occur in those with rectal cancer. CASE PRESENTATION: This is a case report of a 58-year-old woman with a swollen right lower extremity 14 months after radical resection for rectal cancer. Although ultrasonography indicated the presence of deep venous thrombosis (DVT) located in the right common iliac vein, interventional angiography showed that a circular mass, considered a tumor thrombus, was located in the right common iliac vein. The tumor thrombus was cured by interventional therapy, and the pathological report confirmed that the metastatic tumor thrombus originated from the rectal cancer. The patient underwent concurrent chemoradiotherapy and systemic therapy. However, right lung, retroperitoneum, and 2nd sacral vertebral metastases were discovered during follow-up.
conclusionThe correct diagnosis of a tumor thrombus and its differentiation from DVT can prevent incorrect treatment and prolong the survival of patients with rectal cancer.
