Venous thromboembolism in patients with idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis, based on nationwide claim data.
Article in Therapeutic advances in respiratory disease. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundIdiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a known risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE). However, it is currently unknown which factors are associated with an increase of VTE in patients with IPF.
objectivesWe estimated the incidence of VTE in patients with IPF and identified clinical characteristics related to VTE in patients with IPF. DESIGN AND
methodsDe-identified nationwide health claim data from 2011 to 2019 was collected from the Korean Health Insurance Review and Assessment database. Patients with IPF were selected if they had made at least one claim per year under the J84.1 [
resultsThe incidence rate per 1000 person-years of VTE was 7.08 (6.44-7.77). Peak incidence rates were noted in the 50-59 years old male and 70-79 years old female groups. Ischemic heart disease, ischemic stroke, and malignancy were associated with VTE in patients with IPF, with an adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) of 1.25 (1.01-1.55), 1.36 (1.04-1.79), and 1.53 (1.17-2.01). The risk for VTE was increased in patients diagnosed with malignancy after IPF diagnosis (aHR = 3.18, 2.47-4.11), especially lung cancer [hazard ratio (HR) = 3.78, 2.90-4.96]. Accompanied VTE was related to more utilization of medical resources.
conclusionIschemic heart disease, ischemic stroke, and malignancy, especially lung cancer, were related to higher HR for VTE in IPF.
