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
Upper extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is an uncommon, under-reported, and difficult-to-diagnose condition. Although the strong provoking risk factors of venous thromboembolism are well described in the literature, the majority of cases are provoked by weak risk factors or are even considered unprovoked. In this case report, we describe a rare case of a brachial DVT in a woman in her 40s following implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) implantation. In her first evaluation, slight left arm edema and brachialgia were noted, and physiotherapy was prescribed. One month later, the patient was reevaluated because her complaints did not resolve, and an upper extremity venous ultrasound was done to exclude complications due to ICD implantation. The ultrasound identified an old DVT, which had been completely recanalized. The patient was then referred to a vascular surgery specialty consultation, which confirmed the diagnosis, and an anticoagulant was prescribed for three months. The symptoms resolved, and the patient did not report any more pain.
