Phlegmasia Cerulea Dolens Due To May Thurner Syndrome.

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
May-Thurner syndrome is rarely considered in the differential diagnosis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT). Patients present with a clinical picture suggestive of DVT, and the true diagnosis is not confirmed until CT venography. We present a case of a 71-year-old woman, with risk factors of hypercoagulability, such as an anatomical variant and a 50-pack-year history, who presented with sudden onset swelling and redness of her left leg. Further investigation led to a diagnosis of May-Thurner syndrome. Our case discusses this extrinsic cause of venous stasis and how early diagnosis, and treatment can prevent the progression into Phlegmasia Cerulea Dolens.
