Perioperative Venous Thromboembolism in Ulcerative Colitis: A Multicenter Prospective Study in Japan.
Article in Crohn's & colitis 360, 2021. 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
Background: Recently, the prevalence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in Asian patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is gradually increasing. IBD surgery is a well-recognized risk factor for VTE. However, there are no prospective studies about VTE after surgery for ulcerative colitis (UC) in Asia. This multicenter prospective study aimed to clarify the prevalence and risk factors for perioperative VTE in UC surgery in Japan. Methods: A total of 134 patients with UC were included from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2014. Preoperative screening was performed in all patients. In the perioperative period, standard VTE prophylaxis based on risk assessment was administered. The prevalence of pre- and postoperative VTE, its risk factors, and mortality rates were investigated. Results: Perioperative deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism were diagnosed in 15 (11.1%) and 1 patient (0.7%), respectively. All patients were asymptomatic. No surgery-related deaths were found (mortality rate 0%). Seven patients (5.2%) were diagnosed, and 8 (6.4%) during postoperative follow-up by ultrasonography or computed tomography. Forty-seven percent of VTE cases was developed preoperatively. A preoperative hospital length stay of over 5 days was a significant risk factor [ Conclusion: A VTE-conscious perioperative management is as necessary in Asia as in Western countries.
