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

The development of non-cirrhotic portal hypertension and esophagogastric varices is an uncommon, yet life-threatening complication of splenic vein thrombosis. Recognizing this association between splenic vein thrombosis and non-cirrhotic portal hypertension is critical in reducing morbidity and mortality in patients with hypercoagulable disease secondary to malignancy. Herein, we present a 45-year-old female with stage IV high-grade serous ovarian carcinoma and chronic splenic vein thrombosis found to have life-threatening esophagogastric varices secondary to non-cirrhotic portal hypertension.
