Embolization of chest wall varicosity for Mondor disease manifesting as pulmonary embolism.

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
Mondor disease is a rare disease consisting of superficial thrombophlebitis of veins of the anterior thoracic wall, and less often of the groin, axilla, and abdomen. It most commonly presents as a cord-like induration on the chest wall. The etiology is unclear although it has been associated with breast cancer, local trauma, and hypercoagulable states. It is typically a benign and self-limiting condition, with pain being the most common complaint. We present the case of an otherwise healthy young male patient who presented with a chest wall thrombosed varicosity of an axillary vein tributary, which was a nidus for a subsequent pulmonary embolism. He was treated with a vascular plug to occlude the varicosity and prevent further pulmonary emboli.
