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

Extensive iliocaval thrombosis is a rare manifestation of venous thromboembolism and should prompt evaluation for inherited thrombophilia in young patients. We report a previously healthy 21-year-old man with a homozygous factor V Leiden mutation who presented with bilateral groin pain, fever, and syncope two weeks after a 12-hour international flight. Imaging demonstrated extensive thrombosis involving the infrarenal and intrahepatic inferior vena cava, the bilateral common and external iliac veins, and the right renal vein with extensive collateralization. He underwent staged mechanical thrombectomy and balloon venoplasty, followed by indefinite anticoagulation. This case highlights the importance of recognizing atypical presentations of extensive iliocaval thrombosis, the synergistic risk of homozygous factor V Leiden mutation and prolonged immobility, and the need for individualized multidisciplinary management.
