Clinical and radiological differentiation between Trousseau syndrome and cardiogenic embolism: a retrospective case-control study.

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: Trousseau syndrome (TS) is a thromboembolic event in cancer patients caused by abnormalities in coagulation and fibrinolytic mechanisms. Acute multiple cerebral infarction (AMCI) is a rare form of TS. This study aimed to discuss the differentiation of clinical and radiographic characteristics between TS and cardiogenic embolism (CE) with AMCI as the main manifestation. Methods: We retrospectively analyzed 69 patients with TS-AMCI and 105 patients with CE-AMCI who were treated at Shandong Provincial Hospital between August 2018 and October 2022. The clinical baseline data, laboratory indices, and imaging characteristics of the two groups were compared. A logistic regression was used to analyze the risk factors of TS-AMCI, and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves were used to analyze the predictive value of the risk factors. Results: In relation to the clinical data, there were statistically significant differences between the two groups of patients in terms of the lipid and coagulation indices. D-dimer [odds ratio (OR) =4.459, 95% confidence interval (CI): 1.871-10.625; P=0.001] and triglyceride (OR =6.001, 95% CI: 2.375-15.165; P<0.001) were independent risk factors for TS-AMCI. In relation to the radiographic characteristics, the infarctions in the TS-AMCI group were widely distributed in multiple arterial supply areas [23 (33.3%) Conclusions: Unexplained AMCI in the cancer-prone age group, abnormalities in the lipid and D-dimer levels, and infarction foci involving multiple arterial blood supply areas suggested a high probability of TS.
