Initial hemodynamic status and Acute Mortality in Cancer patients with Acute Pulmonary Embolism: from the COMMAND VTE Registry.
Article in Journal of thrombosis and thrombolysis, 2024. 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
backgroundInitial hemodynamic status in patients with acute pulmonary embolism (PE) concerns their acute clinical outcomes. Nevertheless, the characteristics of initial hemodynamic dysfunction and acute mortality in PE patients with active cancer is still controversial.
methodsWe analyzed the data of 1715 PE patients in the COMMAND VTE Registry to compare initial hemodynamic dysfunction, management strategies, and mortality outcomes at 30 days after PE diagnosis between patients with and without active cancer (N = 393 and N = 1322).
resultsThe patients with active cancer showed lower prevalence of right ventricular dysfunction (35.4% vs. 49.5%, P < 0.001), shock (6.4% vs. 11.6%, P = 0.003), and cardiac arrest (1.8% vs. 5.5%, P = 0.002) at PE diagnosis, compared with those without. The patients with active cancer less frequently received systemic thrombolysis (4.1% vs. 12.6%, P < 0.001) than those without. There was no significant difference in the cumulative 30-day incidence of PE-related death between patients with and without active cancer (4.1% vs. 4.2%, P = 0.89). The cumulative 30-day incidence of all-cause death was significantly higher in patients with active cancer than in those without (11.5% vs. 4.9%, P < 0.001).
conclusionsPE patients with active cancer less frequently present with initial hemodynamic dysfunction at PE diagnosis, compared with those without. Nevertheless, PE patients with active cancer still show a similar risk of PE-related death and a higher risk of all-cause death at 30 days after PE diagnosis, suggesting the importance of prudent management for this patient population even if their initial hemodynamic status are not compromised.
