A Systematic Review of Radiological Diagnosis and Management of May-Thurner Syndrome.
Review in Journal of pharmacy & bioallied sciences, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
May-Thurner syndrome (MTS) is an anatomical condition of external luminal compression of common iliac vein due to a partial obstruction of the common iliac vein between common iliac artery and lumbar vertebra causes deep-vein thrombosis, venous hypertension, and chronic venous insufficiencies. In this article, we review present evidence of the clinical diagnosis and management of MTS. Here, we conducted a literature review of studies on MTS. We also reviewed different clinical features, presentation, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic procedure for this condition. Most studies mentioned the diagnosis of this condition is performed by color Doppler, computed tomographic angiography, venography, and problem-solving cases by intravascular ultrasound technique. Nonsurgical methods of management are first line, and vascular surgery is reserved for refractory cases. Multiple modalities are required to reach the diagnosis of MTS, and noninvasive intervention radiology methods are the first line of management. This review highlights the presentations of MTS and outlines diagnostic procedure and management.
