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
Cardiovascular complications of cancer therapy are among the most important factors affecting cancer prognosis. Cisplatin-induced aortic thrombosis is rare but can be life-threatening in the event of peripheral embolism. In this report, we describe a case of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) embolism associated with cisplatin-induced aortic thrombosis. A 66-year-old male, diagnosed with esophageal cancer, initiated systemic chemotherapy with a regimen consisting of 5-fluorouracil and cisplatin, combined with radiotherapy. After 7 days of chemoradiotherapy, the patient developed a floating thrombus in the ascending aorta and an SMA embolism; chemoradiotherapy was then discontinued. Laparoscopy revealed an ischemic small intestine that required resection; intravenous unfractionated heparin was initiated 3 days after. Computed tomography showed disappearance of the floating aortic thrombus and reduce SMA thrombus size. Early detection of cisplatin-induced aortic thrombosis may prevent fatal outcomes in symptomatic peripheral embolisms, such as SMA embolism, considering anticoagulation, and discontinuation of cisplatin-based chemotherapy may cause resolution of thrombus events.
