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

Congenital anomalies of the inferior vena cava (IVC) are rare and often clinically silent but may predispose to venous thrombosis through altered hemodynamics. We report a woman in her late sixties who presented with acute severe abdominal pain and shock physiology. Contrast-enhanced computed tomography showed hypoplasia of the infrahepatic IVC with marked azygos-hemiazygos continuation, complicated by extensive superior mesenteric vein thrombosis and ischemic ileal bowel. Despite aggressive resuscitation and emergent surgical planning, the patient rapidly deteriorated and died. This case highlights IVC hypoplasia as a potential predisposing factor for catastrophic mesenteric venous thrombosis.
