COVID-19 Infection and Acute Pulmonary Embolism in an Adolescent Female With Sickle Cell Disease.
Article in Cureus, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
A previously healthy 20-year-old female presented to the emergency room in April 2020 with complaints of shortness of breath, chest pain, and cough. She was diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) infection and pulmonary embolism (PE). Workup for anemia led to the diagnosis of sickle cell disease (SCD). Patients diagnosed with COVID-19 are at an increased risk for the development of PE and venous thromboembolism (VTE). Anticoagulation prophylaxis and escalation to treatment dosing are recommended in patients admitted with moderate to severe symptoms of COVID-19. PE and VTE are relatively uncommon in the pediatric and adolescent population. Most commonly, patients are diagnosed with thrombophilia or have an underlying hypercoagulable state such as with SCD. Also, symptoms of COVID-19 infection, acute chest syndrome (ACS), and PE can have overlapping features. In this report, we present a case of a late adolescent female with SCD, who was diagnosed with COVID-19, and whose condition was complicated with PE.
