Extensive Unprovoked Thromboembolism in Steroid-Dependent Ulcerative Colitis: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The elevated risk of thromboembolism (TE) in association with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) is well-established in literature. Herein, we present a case of a 70-year-old patient with steroid-dependent ulcerative colitis who presented with exertional dyspnea and abdominal pain. Investigations revealed extensive bilateral iliac and renal and caval venous thrombosis as well as pulmonary emboli. In addition to the rarity of such a finding in this location, this case serves to remind clinicians of the elevated risk of TE in those with IBD, even among those with IBD that has been in remission, especially in those presenting with unexplained abdominal pain and/or renal injury. TE can be life-threatening and requires a high index of clinical suspicion to establish early diagnosis and prevent propagation.
