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

backgroundDeep vein thrombosis (DVT) is commonly identified and diagnosed in the emergency department. Factors including sedentary life (immobility), pregnancy in women, cancer, postoperation, admission to ICU, smoking, and obesity are identified risks for thrombosis development. We report a case of a 35-year-old man who presented to the emergency department developing left lower leg swelling and pain, low-grade fever, and headache after he was treated and discharged, cured of severe COVID-19. Then venous and arterial Doppler ultrasound of the lower leg revealed dilated, absent flow and luminal thrombus in the distal popliteal, anterior and posterior tibial veins and perforator vessels were diagnosed as leg DVT.

conclusionDVT is a hematological emergency that needs serious consideration in prevention as well early diagnosis in patients with possible risk factors. This case report aims to arouse the clinician's awareness of the occurrence of deep vein thrombosis during and after COVID-19.
