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

Background: Surgery is a known risk factor for hospital-acquired venous thromboembolism (HA-VTE) in children. Objectives: To assess whether the odds of HA-VTE differs across six anatomic sites of noncardiac surgery and to identify risk factors for HA-VTE in these children. Methods: This was a multicenter, case-control study. Anatomic sites of surgery and risk factors for HA-VTE were collected on hospitalized pediatric patients who had undergone a single noncardiac surgery and developed HA-VTE (cases), and those who did not develop HA-VTE (controls), via the Children's Hospital-Acquired Thrombosis (CHAT) Registry. Logistic regression estimated the odds ratio (OR) and 95% confidence intervals (CIs) between six anatomic sites of surgery and 16 putative HA-VTE risk factors. Variables with a Results: From January 2012 to March 2020, 163 cases (median age, 5.7 years; interquartile range [IQR], 0.3-14.2) and 208 controls (median age of 7.5 years; IQR, 3.7-12.9) met our criteria. There was no statistically significant increased odds of VTE among the types of noncardiac surgery. In the final adjusted model, central venous catheter (CVC; OR, 14.69; 95% CI, 7.06-30.55), intensive care unit (ICU) stay (OR, 5.31; 95% CI, 2.53-11.16), and hospitalization in the month preceding surgery (OR, 2.75; 95% CI, 1.24-6.13) were each independently significant risk factors for HA-VTE. Conclusion: In children undergoing noncardiac surgery, placement of CVCs, admission/transfer to the ICU, or hospitalization in the month prior to surgery were positively associated with HA-VTE.
