Extensive Deep Vein Thrombosis With Intraabdominal Extension Triggered by Oral Contraceptive Use in a Young Patient With Interrupted Inferior Vena Cava With Azygos Continuation: 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
Congenital malformations of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are rare and often asymptomatic, typically discovered incidentally during imaging. However, these anomalies can result in circulatory stasis, impede venous return, and serve as predisposing factors for thrombus formation. Here, we present a unique case of a 28-year-old female patient who was found to have interrupted IVC with azygos continuation, an exceedingly rare IVC anomaly, during a work-up of extensive bilateral deep vein thrombosis (DVT) with an intraabdominal extension which was triggered by recent combined oral contraceptive pills (OCP) use. This case highlights the importance of considering vena cava malformations as an underlying cause for extensive DVT, even in the absence of conventional risk factors. Clinicians should be aware of the potential association between congenital vena cava anomalies and thrombotic events, as early recognition and appropriate management are crucial for preventing complications such as pulmonary embolism.
