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

Acute pulmonary embolism (PE) can present with non-specific signs and symptoms and thus the diagnosis and management might not be as straightforward. This review outlines the new PE management guidelines in the Indian context. The exact prevalence in the Indian population is not well defined; despite recent studies suggesting an increasing trend in the Asian population. A delay in treatment can be fatal, especially in massive PE. The nuances associated with stratification and management have led to heterogeneity in acute PE management. The purpose of the review is. 1: To highlight the principles of stratification, diagnosis and management of acute PE with a special attention towards the Indian population. 2: To aid patient selection for newer catheter based therapies. To conclude, formulation of pulmonary embolism guidelines in the Indian setting is required underlying the role of further research in this area.
