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

opinion statementPatients with primary brain tumors are at a substantially elevated risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) compared to other disease states or other forms of malignancy. Deep venous thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), often complicate the care of patients with primary brain tumors, and treatment may pose specific unique risks and considerations for management. This paper critically reviews the relevant literature and the most common treatment options in addition to a discussion regarding the relative risk considerations for neurooncology patients facing thromboembolic disease.
