Venous Thromboembolism Prophylaxis in Maxillofacial Surgery.
Review in Cureus, 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
The aim of this article is to conduct a literature review concerning the need for venous thromboembolism (VTE) prophylaxis among patients undergoing maxillofacial surgery. This article addresses the diagnosis of VTE, patient risk stratification, and prophylactic measures suitable for the various groups of interest in maxillofacial surgery. From a pool of 44 articles identified, nine were chosen as the most pertinent to the aims of this review. Despite limited data on this topic, individuals undergoing oral and maxillofacial surgery generally exhibit a low risk of VTE. This review emphasizes the importance of implementing prophylactic measures tailored to individual risk factors. Pharmacological prophylaxis merits consideration, particularly when the Caprini score is ≥7. However, further research is needed to optimize prophylactic strategies in maxillofacial surgery.
