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
Background: The most recent guideline on acute pulmonary embolism (PE) indicates possible long-term sequelae such as dyspnoea and chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension after a PE event. However, effects on lung function or asthma risk have not been evaluated in the general population. Methods: We tested whether individuals with a venous thromboembolism (VTE) encompassing PE and deep vein thrombosis (DVT) have reduced lung function, or greater risks of dyspnoea and asthma using data from 102 792 adults from the Copenhagen General Population Study. Diagnoses of PE, DVT and asthma were collected from the national Danish Patient Registry. Factor V Leiden and prothrombin G20210A gene variants were determined using TaqMan assays. Results: Prevalences of PE, DVT and VTE were 2.2%, 3.6% and 5.2%, respectively. Individuals with VTE had forced expiratory volume in 1 s of 92% predicted compared with 96% pred in individuals without VTE (p<0.001). Individuals with VTE Conclusion: Individuals with VTE have worse lung function and higher risks of severe dyspnoea and asthma, and may account for 3.5% and 3.0% of people with severe dyspnoea and asthma, respectively, in the general population.
