Risk factors for venous thromboembolism in patients with pneumonia in the pre-COVID-19 era: a meta-analysis and systematic review.
Article in Journal of thoracic disease, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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: Elevated risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE) in patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia has been recognized, while the risk factors associated with VTE in patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia remain to be defined. This study aimed to conduct a meta-analysis and systematic review following Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines to identify potential risk factors for VTE in patients with pneumonia from the pre-COVID-19 era. Methods: PubMed, EMBASE, and Cochrane Library were searched. Two reviewers performed screening, full-text review, and extraction. Risk factors and odds ratio (OR) were estimated. Results: Of 595 articles identified, six studies were included. Pooled analysis suggested that age ≥60 years [OR =2.75, 95% confidence interval (CI): 2.55-2.97, P<0.001], mechanical ventilation (MV) (OR =9.48, 95% CI: 8.24-10.91, P<0.001), hypertension (OR =1.41, 95% CI: 1.09-1.83, P=0.010), diabetes (OR =1.49, 95% CI: 1.36-1.64, P<0.001), heart failure (OR =3.15, 95% CI: 1.05-9.41, P=0.040) and cancer (OR =2.86, 95% CI: 2.07-3.95, P<0.001) were associated with higher risk for deep vein thrombosis in patients with pneumonia. While age ≥60 years (OR =2.46, 95% CI: 2.21-2.73, P<0.001), bacterial pneumonia (OR =3.80, 95% CI: 1.65-8.73, P=0.002), hyperlipidemia (OR =1.55, 95% CI: 1.00-2.41, P=0.049), heart failure (OR =2.70, 95% CI: 2.05-3.56, P<0.001), chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (OR =4.73, 95% CI: 3.11-7.17, P<0.001) and cancer (OR =2.90, 95% CI: 2.39-3.53, P<0.001) were risk factors for pulmonary embolism in patients with pneumonia. Conclusions: Patients with non-COVID-19 pneumonia, particularly those with advanced age, MV, cardiovascular comorbidities or cancer, warrant individualized management during hospitalization. Our findings could contribute to refining risk prediction models and further risk stratification for VTE in patients with pneumonia in clinical practice.
