Incidence of Recurrent Venous Thromboembolism in a Population-Based Cohort.

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
The incidence of recurrent venous thromboembolism (VTE) changes over time from the first VTE event and depends on the presence of risk factors. In this study, we aimed to determine the yearly incidence of VTE recurrence during five years of follow-up after a first-ever VTE event. For this cohort study, we identified persons who experienced a validated first-ever VTE between 2006-2014 in northern Sweden. These patients' medical records were reviewed to identify recurrent VTE events during five years of follow-up. The yearly incidence rates (IRs) of recurrent VTE per 100 person-years were calculated and stratified into three groups defined by characteristics at the first-ever VTE event: no risk factors, cancer, or other risk factors. A total of 1413 persons experienced a first-ever VTE during the study period, of whom 213 experienced a recurrent VTE. Among persons without risk factors, the IR was 4.2 during the first year of follow-up, and 4.1 during the fifth year. Among persons with cancer, the IR was 9.5 during the first year, and 5.4 during the fifth year. Among persons with other risk factors, the corresponding IRs were 6.1 and 2.3. In conclusion, after a first-ever VTE event, persons with cancer had the highest recurrence rate during the first years of follow-up. Among persons with cancer who were alive after five years, the incidence of recurrent VTE during the fifth year was similar to that in participants without risk factors.
