Inferior mesenteric vein thrombophlebitis secondary to acute diverticulitis.
Article in Radiology case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Inferior mesenteric vein thrombophlebitis is an uncommon condition. Most cases of portal-mesenteric thrombophlebitis affect either the portal vein or superior mesenteric vein; it is not known why the inferior mesenteric vein is less affected. Thrombophlebitis typically occurs following inflammatory intra-abdominal processes, such as diverticulitis. Diverticulitis is a common condition in the Western world, with several common complications, such as fistula formation and bowel wall perforation. However, although diverticulitis is a common cause of portal-mesenteric thrombophlebitis, thrombophlebitis is still a rare complication of diverticulitis. We present a case of diverticulitis complicated with interior mesenteric vein thrombophlebitis with gas extension into the portal vein.
