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

Objective: Postoperative patients with indwelling vascular access devices (VADs) face a high risk of lower extremity deep vein thrombosis (DVT). This study sought to develop a VAD-specific DVT risk prediction model and verify the efficacy of a targeted three-phase VAD management system. Methods: A retrospective cohort study enrolled 156 postoperative VAD users (August 2023-August 2024), equally assigned to a conventional nursing group and an access management group. Clinical data were collected, and variables were screened via clinical relevance and univariate logistic regression (P<0.05), followed by multivariate logistic regression to build the prediction model. The model's performance was validated using ROC curves, Hosmer-Lemeshow test, and Brier score, with 5-fold cross-validation for stability. The three-phase system included pre-infusion VAD optimization, intra-infusion targeted monitoring, and post-infusion risk stratification with DVT screening. Results: Central venous catheter (CVC) use (OR=2.92, P=0.005) and prior thrombosis history (OR=3.61, P=0.002) were identified as independent predictors. The model exhibited good discriminative ability (AUC=0.83, 95% CI: 0.76-0.90) and stability (average AUC=0.81±0.03). DVT incidence showed a significant risk gradient (1.85% vs.6.94% vs.16.67%, P=0.013). The access management group had significantly lower VAD-related complications and DVT incidence, with higher DVT prevention effectiveness and cognitive scores (all P<0.05). Conclusion: The VAD-specific DVT risk prediction model achieves effective risk stratification for postoperative VAD users, and the three-phase management system markedly reduces VAD-related complications and lower extremity DVT incidence. This integrated strategy bridges the gap between VAD care and DVT prevention, providing actionable clinical guidance to enhance postoperative VAD use safety with evidence-based support.
