1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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: Data on walking impairment during the acute phase of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) are limited. Objectives: This study aimed to assess the degree of walking impairment in patients with acute DVT, with a particular focus on the relation to the DVT's anatomical location. Methods: Patients with sonographically confirmed DVT were eligible for inclusion in this cohort study. Pain-free walking distance (PWD) and maximum walking distance (MWD) were determined using standardized treadmill ergometer tests and analyzed in relation to DVT location. The impact of previous DVT on walking capacity was evaluated in an exploratory analysis. Results: The study included 64 patients (31% women; median age, 55 years). The median (IQR) time from diagnosis to exercise test was 3 (1-5) days. Patients with suprainguinal DVT demonstrated significantly shorter median (IQR) MWD than those with infrainguinal DVT (130 (61-202) m vs 565 (128-750) m; Conclusion: Suprainguinal DVT was linked to a more pronounced walking impairment compared with infrainguinal DVT. Limited walking capacity was associated with a reduced quality of life.
