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

WHAT IS KNOWN AND

objectiveCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with increased risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). Guidance for VTE prophylaxis continues to evolve, including addressing direct oral anticoagulants (DOACs) continued upon hospitalization. CASE SUMMARIES: We present 5 patients hospitalized for COVID-19 while on DOACs. Four patients had atrial fibrillation and had a previous VTE. Four patients developed acute VTE and one developed stroke-like symptoms. Monitoring D-dimer assisted with the detection of VTE. Three patients died, and two were discharged alive. WHAT IS NEW AND

conclusionTherapeutic failure with DOACs appears to be commonplace in COVID-19. Further research is needed to determine whether there is an underlying cause to this association.
