1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

A meta-analysis of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in patients with spinal cord injury (SCI) was performed using five databases (PubMed, Embase, the Cochrane Library, Web of Science, and Scopus) from 2000 to March 2023. Observational descriptive studies investigating the prevalence of DVT among patients with SCI were included. Data were retrieved by author, country, continent, gender, age, sample source, and additional variables. Risk of bias was evaluated using the Joanna Briggs Institute Critical Appraisal Instrument for Studies Reporting Prevalence. Data and random-effects models were used to synthesize existing findings. Among 45 studies, the overall pooled estimated prevalence of DVT was 14.53% (95% confidence interval [CI], 11.22 - 17.84%) in patients with SCI (
