Pulmonary Thromboembolism Developed During Hospitalization: A Nationwide Retrospective Observational Study Using Claims Data.
Article in Cardiology and therapy, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
introductionEvidence regarding the development of pulmonary thromboembolism (PE) during hospitalization is unclear. We hypothesized that the incidence of PE could vary depending on clinical department and aimed to conduct a survey on the incidence of in-hospital PE.
methodsWe conducted a retrospective analysis using claims data of in-hospital patients in Japan. We collected background information regarding patients with and without PE occurrence during hospitalization. Further, we determined the incidence of PE and implemented prophylactic procedures in patients with and without surgery according to clinical department at admission. Finally, we examined the duration of hospital stay and in-hospital mortality rates in patients with and without PE.
resultsWe found that 5007 (0.107%, 20.61 per 1000 person-years) patients developed PE during hospitalization and differed by clinical department at admission. Moreover, 2272 (0.095%, 19.3 per 1000 person-years) and 2735 (0.119%, 21.8 per 1000 person-years) patients with and without surgery, respectively, developed PE during hospitalization (P < 0.001). Further, 33.8% of inpatients underwent prophylactic procedures for PE; however, the implementation rate differed between patients with and without surgery (59.2% vs. 7.3%, P < 0.001). The median duration of hospital stay in patients with and without PE was 31.0 and 11.0 days, and the in-hospital mortality rates in patients with and without PE were 11.0% and 3.5%, respectively (P < 0.001). DISCUSSION: The incidence of in-hospital PE differed according to patient characteristics, clinical departments, and presence/absence of surgery. The onset of PE during hospitalization leads to prolonged hospital stay and in-hospital death.
conclusionIt is important to conduct a proper risk assessment on admission as well as to implement proper prophylactic procedures to prevent the development of PE during hospitalization.
