A Review of the Preventive Strategies for Venous Thromboembolism in Hospitalized Patients.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 papers, 2 of them syntheses that pooled 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.
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
This comprehensive review introduces the critical issue of venous thromboembolism (VTE), emphasizing its prevalence, particularly in developed countries, and its role as a leading cause of preventable deaths. It discusses the components of VTE, encompassing deep vein thrombosis (DVT) and pulmonary embolism (PE), with a focus on the clinical challenges of diagnosing silent VTE in hospitalized patients. The review underscores the shocking statistics associated with VTE, including its impact on patient mortality, especially in medically treated, acutely ill patients. Despite the availability of evidence-based guidelines recommending VTE prophylaxis, there is a significant gap in implementation, making it a leading cause of unexpected hospital deaths. Additionally, the review outlines the multifaceted nature of VTE risk factors, ranging from transient to persistent and provoked to unprovoked, providing a comprehensive understanding of patient-specific considerations. The latter part of the review delves into the impact of VTE on patient health outcomes, revealing its adverse effects on survival, recurrence rates, and psychosocial well-being. Furthermore, it explores various preventive measures, including pharmacological and mechanical options, and their effectiveness, highlighting the importance of a multimodal approach. The review also touches on the challenges of guideline adherence and patient-centered considerations in VTE prevention.
