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
Purpose: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is the most serious clinical manifestation of venous thromboembolism (VTE) and a common cause of death in psychiatric patients. Patients diagnosed with mental illness have additional thromboembolic risk factors. These factors are not included in scores used to assess VTE risk. The goal of this elaboration is to take notice of the increased thrombo- embolic risk in psychiatric patients, with a particular focus on patients with catatonic symptoms. Case description: Two cases of young men with catatonic symptoms who suffered from cardiac arrest during psychiatric hospitali- zation are reported on. Autopsy showed pulmonary embolism as the main cause of death. Based on the Padua Prediction Score the two patients had no indications for thromboprophylaxis. Both men were mostly treated with olanzapine. Comment: PE should be always taken into account in differential diagnosis, even if patients do not present with its typical risk factors.
