Incidence of and risk factors for venous thrombosis in hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies: A single-center, prospective cohort study.

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
objectiveIncidence of venous thromboembolism (VTE) is higher than the expected in patients with hematologic malignancies and duration of hospitalization period increases the risk of thrombosis. The objective of this study was to investigate the incidence of and risk factors for venous thrombosis in hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies.
methodsWe designed a prospective cohort study and enrolled patients with hematologic malignancies, who had been hospitalized between 2020 and 2021. Thromboprophylaxis was given to all patients, other than those under a high risk of hemorrhage.
results94 patients were enrolled. The incidence of superficial vein thrombosis was 11.7% and the incidence of deep vein thrombosis (including pulmonary embolism and catheter thrombosis) was 7.4%. Patients, who developed thrombosis, had statistically significantly longer hospital stays (21 vs. 11.5 days, p=0.023) and a higher number of hospitalizations (1 vs. 3, p=0.015) compared to those, who did not develop thrombosis. Patients, who had 3 or more risk factors for thrombosis, were found to be under the highest risk. (p=0.017, OR=4.32; 95% CI: 1.3-14.35). Furthermore, patients with recurrent hospitalizations (p=0.024, OR=1.49; 95% CI: 1.05-2.11) and higher fibrinogen levels (p=0.028, OR=1; 95% CI: 1-1.006) were under an increased risk of thrombosis.
conclusionVenous thrombosis is frequently seen in hospitalized patients with hematologic malignancies. A universally accepted risk scoring system is required for detection of patients, under a high risk for thrombosis.
