Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) for postoperative venous thromboembolism prophylaxis in patients with gynecologic malignancies: A quality mini-review.
Review in Gynecologic oncology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common cause of morbidity and mortality in gynecologic oncology patients with an increased risk in the postoperative period. Historically, international guidelines have recommended 28 days of low molecular weight heparin (LMWH) or unfractionated heparin (UFH) for extended VTE prophylaxis after major abdominal and pelvic surgery for gynecologic malignancies. Direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) have emerged as an attractive alternative to injectable anticoagulants. This quality mini-review evaluated the literature around the use of DOACs for postoperative VTE prophylaxis after surgery for gynecologic cancer. Overall, the reviewed literature supports the use of DOACs in select patients within this population which may lead to an improved patient experience, higher rates of treatment compliance, and increased cost savings.
