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
objectivePrevious studies have reported that neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) have been identified to be involved in thrombosis, but the clinical value in chronic heart failure (CHF) patients with venous thrombosis is unclear. This study focused on the expression level of NETs in the peripheral blood of patients with CHF complicated with venous thrombosis and its clinical value.
methods80 patients with CHF were included and divided into 2 groups according to the occurrence of venous thrombosis, and the expression levels of NETs in peripheral venous blood and lesion veins of the patients were detected through fluorescent staining. Myeloperoxidase-DNA (MPO-DNA) and citrullinated histone H3 (CitH3), markers of NETs, were detected by enzyme linked immunosorbent assay kit. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to analyze the value of peripheral venous blood NETs in the diagnosis of venous thrombosis in CHF patients, while the relationship between NETs in peripheral and lesion veins was analyzed by a unitary linear regression model.
resultsThe results showed that the concentration of NETs, MPO-DNA, and CitH3 in CHF patients combined with venous thrombosis was markedly higher than that in patients without venous thrombosis, and the concentration of NETs, MPO-DNA, and CitH3 in lesion venous blood was notably higher than that in peripheral venous blood. Binary logistics regression analysis showed that NETs in peripheral venous blood were an independent risk factor for venous thrombosis in patients with heart failure. The unitary linear regression model fitted well, indicating a notable positive correlation between NETs concentrations in peripheral and lesion veins. The area under the ROC curve for diagnosing venous thrombosis was 0.85, indicating that peripheral blood NETs concentration levels could effectively predict venous thrombosis in CHF patients.
conclusionThe expression level of NETs was high in the peripheral blood of CHF patients combined with venous thrombosis and was the highest in lesion venous blood. NETs levels in peripheral blood had the value of diagnosing venous thrombosis in CHF patients, and the concentrations of NETs in peripheral and lesion veins are markedly positively correlated.
