Acute Pulmonary Embolism in Oman: A Situational Analysis.
Article in Oman medical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Objectives: Pulmonary embolism (PE) is increasingly prevalent in Oman. The aim of this situational analysis of PE among Omani patients was to study its predisposing factors, diagnostic issues, and optimal management. Methods: In this retrospective cross-sectional situational analysis, the subjects were Omani patients who were diagnosed with acute PE using computed tomography pulmonary angiogram from 2010-2021. The required data was collected from the hospital database and statistically analyzed. Results: The subjects were 438 patients diagnosed with PE, with a mean age of 53.3±18.5 years and mean body mass index of 29.7±7.3 kg/m Conclusions: The incidence of acute PE was similar among both male and female Omani patients. However, there were sex differences in risk factors, symptoms, investigations, and management of PE. Females presented with more severe PE, but mortality was higher in males.
