Adipokines and incident venous thromboembolism: The Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis.
Article in Journal of thrombosis and haemostasis : JTH, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
backgroundObesity leads to adipocyte hypertrophy and adipokine dysregulation and is an independent risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, the association between adipokines and VTE is not well established.
objectivesTo examine whether adipokines are associated with increased risk of incident VTE.
methodsWe studied 1888 participants of the Multi-Ethnic Study of Atherosclerosis cohort who were initially free of VTE and had adipokine (adiponectin, leptin, and resistin) levels measured at either examination 2 or 3 (2002-2004 or 2004-2005, respectively). During follow-ups, VTE was ascertained through hospitalization records and death certificates by using ICD-9 and 10 codes. We used multivariable Cox proportional hazards regression to assess the association between 1 standard deviation (SD) log-transformed increments in adipokines and incident VTE.
resultsThe mean ± SD age was 64.7 ± 9.6 years, and 49.8% of participants were women. Medians (interquartile range) of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin were 17.3 (11.8-26.2) mcg/mL, 13.5 (5.6-28.2) ng/mL, and 15.0 (11.9-19.0) ng/mL, respectively. There were 78 incident cases of VTE after a median of 9.7 (5.0-12.4) years of follow-up. After adjusting for sociodemographics, smoking, and physical activity, the hazard ratios (95% CIs) per 1 SD increment of adiponectin, leptin, and resistin were 1.14 (0.90-1.44), 1.29 (1.00-1.66), and 1.38 (1.09-1.74), respectively. The association for resistin persisted after further adjustments for body mass index and computed tomography-derived total visceral adipose tissue area.
conclusionHigher resistin levels were independently associated with greater risk of incident VTE. Larger prospective cohort studies are warranted to confirm this association.
