Dual Cardiac Arrests Leading to Hypercoagulability and Extensive Upper Extremity Deep Vein Thrombosis: A Hematological Case Report.

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
Upper extremity (UE) deep vein thrombosis (DVT) is a rare yet significant complication that can occur following cardiac arrest (CA). CA initiates a prothrombotic state via various processes, including stasis, endothelial damage, and an impaired balance between thrombogenesis and fibrinolysis, which may contribute to UE DVT formation. Inadequate cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) in the field may further exacerbate blood stasis and clot formation. This case report describes an 80-year-old male with a history of bladder cancer who experienced two cardiac arrest events and subsequently developed an extensive left UE DVT. Despite treatment with a heparin drip and other supportive measures, the patient's condition deteriorated, and he passed away on the tenth day of hospitalization. This case is the first to describe UE DVT post-CA. It underscores the importance of recognizing and proactively managing hypercoagulable states post-CA, which can lead to significant DVTs in atypical locations that may evolve into life-threatening conditions.
