Causal relationship between 14 site-specific cancers and venous thromboembolism.
Article in Cancer innovation, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: It has been observed that cancer and venous thromboembolism (VTE) are associated, but anticancer therapy may violate the causality. Therefore, this study aimed to elucidate the causal relationship of various cancers to VTE using Mendelian randomization (MR). Methods: Three MR methods were used to estimate causal effects: Inverse variance weighted (IVW), MR-Egger and weighted median. Sensitivity analyses included Cochran's Results: The primary IVW approach showed that non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL) might increase the risk of VTE (odds ratio [OR]: 1.20, 95% confidence interval [95% CI]: 1.00-1.44, Conclusions: Our findings suggested that genetically predicted NHL was associated with higher VTE risk, whereas melanoma had lower VTE risk compared with other site-specific cancers. Moreover, this study suggested that anticancer therapy and increased extensive examination might play a more important role in VTE development than the nature of cancer.
