Pulmonary Embolism and Severe Asthma: Case Report and Literature Review.
Review in Medicina (Kaunas, Lithuania), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
Pulmonary embolism is a life-threatening disease. Its development is generally thought to be due to causes collectively known as the Virchow's triad. Chronic inflammations are associated with the activation of coagulation and increased risks of venous thromboembolic events. Asthma is one of the chronic inflammatory diseases associated with procoagulants and antifibrinolytic activities in the airways. Coagulation is activated in patients with asthma with the following steps of pathophysiology: Increased tissue factor expression in various cell types, decreased activity of the anticoagulant protein C system and inhibition of fibrinolysis through over-production of plasminogen activator inhibitor type 1 (PAI-1). Asthma is therefore likely a risk factor for pulmonary embolism, especially in those patients with severe disease conditions together with frequent exacerbation. Here we present a case of severe asthma associated with coagulopathy and complicated by massive pulmonary embolism, presented with typical S1Q3T3 on electrocardiography (ECG) and massive thrombosis on computed tomography angiography, successfully treated with directed catheter thrombolytic therapy.
