Simultaneous Arterial and Venous Brain Infarctions in a Patient with COVID-19: Case Report.
Article in SN comprehensive clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Stroke is one of the manifestations of COVID-19-associated coagulopathy. Arterial infarcts are the most common presentation; however involvement of both arterial and venous irrigation is possible but rare. We report, what is, to our knowledge, the second case of concomitant arterial and venous brain thrombosis evidenced in magnetic resonance. A 62-year-old man presented with acute weakness of the left hand and lack of coordination in the left arm. Nine days earlier, he was positive for SARS-CoV-2 RT-PCR. The brain images revealed two subacute infarcts, one corresponding to the territory of the right middle cerebral artery, and the other in the right frontal cortical vein. The existence of both venous and arterial brain infarcts due to COVID-19 infection, has been previously reported once. Most of the cases of stroke are due to only arterial thrombosis; therefore, this could be the starting point to start collecting data about simultaneous compromise in order to assess and compare outcomes, severity of the disease, among other variables.
