COVID-19 Presenting as Major Thromboembolic Events: Virchow's Triad Revisited and Clinical Considerations of Therapeutic Anticoagulation.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
This case series describes clinical course of three COVID-19 patients who presented with major thromboembolic events. Patient 1 is a 57-year-old male with asymptomatic COVID-19 who presented with a large left ventricular thrombus. His hospital course was complicated with a stroke. Patient 2 is a 71-year-old male with mild COVID-19 who presented with an acute stroke. Patient 3 is a 47-year-old male with severe COVID-19 who presented with a large pulmonary embolism. He died of a recurrent massive pulmonary embolism. This case series demonstrates that thromboembolic event can be the presenting feature of COVID-19 and can occur in the patients with asymptomatic or mild COVID-19. Diffuse endothelial injury and hypercoagulability play a pivotal role in recurrent thromboembolic events despite the anticoagulation. Therapeutic anticoagulation may be considered for severe COVID-19 patients and patients with important comorbidities or pre-existing endothelial dysfunction.
