Knowledge, attitudes, and practices of patients with multiple myeloma regarding venous thromboembolism: a cross-sectional study.
Article in Frontiers in cardiovascular medicine, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Introduction: Venous thromboembolism (VTE) is a significant complication in multiple myeloma (MM) patients, yet patient awareness and preventive behaviors in this population have received limited research attention. Methods: This cross-sectional survey, conducted at Bazhong Central Hospital (January-September 2024), assessed the knowledge, attitudes, and practices (KAP) of 504 MM patients regarding VTE. Results: Participants were predominantly male (65.1%), with 57.7% reporting prior VTE. Mean scores (SD) were suboptimal: knowledge (8.97 ± 2.92, range 0-13), attitude (29.59 ± 2.70, range 14-70), and practice (44.03 ± 4.07, range 10-50). Positive correlations were found between knowledge-attitude ( Discussion: Findings highlight gaps in VTE knowledge and negative attitudes among MM patients, despite proactive practices. Improving patient education on VTE may enhance attitudes and behaviors, potentially reducing VTE risk in this high-risk population. Targeted interventions are warranted to optimize VTE prevention strategies.
