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

The SARS-CoV-2 virus has spread to all corners of the world. Thrombosis is the cause of organ failure and subsequent death in COVID-19. The pathophysiology of thrombosis in COVID-19 needs to be further explored to shed light on its downside. For this reason, this meta-analysis of Von Willebrand Factor profile (VWF: Ag, VWF: activity, VWF: RCo), ADAMTS-13, and factor VIII levels in COVID-19 was performed. To obtain data on the status of the aforementioned hemostatic factors, a systematic literature review and meta-analysis were performed on COVID-19. After reviewing the evaluation of 348 papers, 28 papers included in the meta-analysis, which was performed using STATA. The analysis showed an increase in VWF: Ag levels in COVID-19 patients. VWF: Ac was higher in all COVID-19 patients, while it was lower in the COVID-19 ICU patients. The pooled mean of VWF: RCO in all patients with COVID-19 was 307.94%. In subgroup analysis, VWF: RCO was significantly higher in ICU patients than in all COVID-19 patients. The pooled mean of ADAMTS-13 activity was 62.47%, and 58.42% in ICU patients. The pooled mean of factor VIII level was 275.8%, which was significantly higher in ICU patients with COVID-19 than all patients with COVID-19. Levels of VWF: Ag, VWF: activity, VWF: ristocetin, and factor VIII are increased in patients with COVID-19. The elevated levels in ICU patients with COVID-19 suggest that these markers may have prognostic value in determining the severity of COVID-19. New therapeutic programs can be developed as a result.
