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

backgroundLombardy, in the northern Italy, was one of the most affected region in the world by novel coronavirus COVID-19 outbreak. Due to the dramatic amount of confirmed positive cases and deaths, all clinical and surgical hospital departments changed their daily activities to face emergent pandemic situations. In particular, vascular surgery units reorganized their role and priorities for both elective and urgent patients requiring open or endovascular interventions. MATERIAL &

methodsThis brief review summarizes organization of vascular Lombardy centers network adopted during pandemic period and clinical evidences published so far by regional referral and nonreferral hospitals in terms of vascular surgery and medicine implications in COVID-19 positive or negative patients managements.

resultsDifferent patterns of disease were described during phase 1 COVID-19 outbreak in Lombardy region, with major attention in pheriperal artery disease and venous thrombosis.

conclusionCOVID-19 infection seems to be not only a pulmonary but also a vascular (arterial and venous) disease. Further study are necessary to described mid and long-term outcomes in COVID-19 vascular patients population.
