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
BackgroundCalf muscle vein thrombosis (CMVT) is frequently grouped with distal deep vein thrombosis in fracture-related studies, leaving its specific burden and clinical relevance uncertain. This systematic review and meta-analysis evaluated the occurrence, associated factors, and clinical outcomes of CMVT in patients undergoing surgery for hip and lower-limb fractures.MethodsPubMed, Embase, Web of Science Core Collection, the Cochrane Library, ClinicalTrials.gov, Google Scholar, and reference lists were searched from inception to June 8, 2026. Eligible studies reported extractable CMVT-related data in patients undergoing surgery or perioperative management for hip or lower-limb fractures. Random-effects meta-analyses were performed using logit-transformed proportions. Risk factors with extractable 2 × 2 data were pooled as unadjusted odds ratios (ORs).ResultsEight observational studies involving 3,695 patients were included; seven studies with 3,435 patients contributed to quantitative synthesis. All studies were conducted in mainland China. Overall, 691 CMVT events were reported. The pooled occurrence was 18.2% (95% CI, 12.4%-26.0%; prediction interval, 4.4%-51.6%; I
