Pulmonary vein thrombosis associated with metastatic uterine leiomyosarcoma: a case report.
Article in Journal of medical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundPulmonary vein thrombosis (PVT) is rarely associated with malignancies. Leiomyosarcoma, a malignant tumor originating from smooth muscles, has never been reported as the etiology of PVT. CASE PRESENTATION: In this case report, we described a 43-year-old Kurdish woman with a known case of leiomyosarcoma who presented with hemoptysis, dyspnea, and pleuritic chest pain. Chest computed tomography (CT) angiography revealed a thrombus in the left infero-posterior pulmonary vein. She was successfully treated with unfractionated heparin administered intravenously followed by orally administered warfarin. At the end of the article, we describe and compare other reports of malignancy-related PVT.
conclusionsWhile malignancies are not a common cause of PVT, both primary lung tumors and metastatic cancers could be associated with PVT. Delay in diagnosis may lead to serious complications and even death. Therefore, clinicians should be aware of the possibility of the development of PVT in different malignancies for appropriate diagnosis and treatment.
