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

A 64-year-old man visited the outpatient department of our hospital for the first time due to bilateral lower limb edema, which he noticed 1 week before the visit. Pain suddenly developed in the left lower limb while the patient was in the waiting room. Nephrotic syndrome was suspected based on blood and urine test results. Acute arterial thromboembolism in the left lower limb associated with hypercoagulation due to nephrotic syndrome was suspected, and a diagnosis was made using computed tomography angiography. Arterial thrombectomy was urgently performed, and the limb was salvaged without sequelae. Based on renal biopsy, minimal change nephrotic syndrome was diagnosed, and the patient underwent remission induction with steroid therapy. Heparin was drip infused and apixaban was orally administered to prevent recurrent thrombosis. Nephrotic syndrome in the acute phase is often complicated by thrombosis. Particularly, arterial thromboembolism requires prompt treatment, and prophylactic anticoagulation therapy needs to be considered.
