Risk Factors of Venous Thromboembolism in Sudanese Pregnant Women.
Article in Balkan journal of medical genetics : BJMG, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is one of the major causes of pregnancy-related mortality and morbidity. This study aimed to determine the frequency of factor V Leiden (FVL) and prothrombin G20210A polymorphisms and measure the plasma levels of protein C (PC), protein S (PS) and antithrombin (AT) in pregnant women with VTE and healthy pregnant women. This prospective case-control study determined the frequencies of FVL G1691A and prothrombin G20210A polymorphisms and measured the plasma levels of PC, PS and AT in 198 pregnant women with VTE and 198 healthy pregnant women. Allele-specific polymerase chain reaction (ASPCR) was used to detect the FVL G1691A polymorphisms and prothrombin G20210A gene mutations. The FVL G1691A polymorphism and prothrombin G20210A gene mutations were detected only in pregnant women with VTE, with frequencies of 4.0 and 0.5%, respectively. The highest frequency of FVL G1691A polymorphism was observed in patients with deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and positively associated with contraceptive use and termination. Pregnant women with VTE had significantly lower levels of PC, PS and AT than those of controls. In conclusion, among the VTE cases, FVL G1691A polymorphism and PC, PS and AT deficiencies were the most common findings in patients presenting with DVT. Antithrombin deficiency was more common than PC and PS deficiencies. Contraceptive use, high body mass index (BMI) and termination correlated strongly with FVL G1691A polymorphism and PC and PS deficiencies in patients with VTE.
