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

backgroundCoagulopathy has emerged as a hallmark issue of the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19). Medical facilities are faced with the challenge of developing institutional thromboprophylaxis protocols; however, due to the novelty of the disease, there is a dearth of high-quality, prospective evidence for decision making. OBSERVATIONS: The US National Institutes of Health along with 4 leading societies in the fields of thrombosis and hemostasis have published guidance based on expert consensus that helps provide a framework for local policy development. While there is agreement in a few areas, there are notable and sometimes considerable differences in recommendations that facilities should discuss when developing local guidance.

conclusionsThis document aims to streamline and simplify the available guidance so health care providers can readily identify consensus and divergence of COVID-19 thromboprophylaxis recommendations. Additionally, the authors provide and briefly highlight the COVID-19 thromboprophylaxis protocol of the US Department of Veterans Affairs Tennessee Valley Healthcare System in Nashville and Murfreesboro to serve as an example of a guideline-directed approach for order-set development.
