Cerebral venous thrombosis during the COVID-19 Pandemic: A multi-center experience.
Review in Clinical neurology and neurosurgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
objectiveTo describe the clinical characteristics and outcomes of CVT in patients with history of recent COVID-19 infection or vaccination.
methodsWe reviewed demographic, clinical, and radiographic characteristics of non-pyrogenic, non-traumatic CVT cases at our multi-center institution between March 2020 and December 2021. Patients were grouped according to their history of recent COVID-19 infection or vaccination into group-I (+COVID-19 association) and group-II (-COVID-19 association).
resultsFifty-one patients with CVT were included, of which 14 (27.4%) had a positive COVID-19 association: 10 with infection and 4 with mRNA-COVID-vaccine. Nine patients in group-I had COVID-19 infection or vaccine within 30 days of CVT diagnosis, including 3 patients with active infection at the time of CVT diagnosis. Half of the patients in group-I (n = 7,50.0%) and 32.4% (n = 12) of group-II were male, and mean age was 52.6 years in group-I and 51.4 years in group-II. Fever at presentation was noted in one patient who had active COVID infection (I=1 (7.1%), II= 0 (0%)). Higher rates of comorbidities were observed in group-II: hypertension (I= 2 (14.3%), II= 13 (35.1%)), deep venous thrombosis(I=1(7.1%), II= 10 (27.0%)), pulmonary emboli (I=1(7.1%), II= 8(21.6%)), or stroke(I=0(0%), II= 6(16.4%)). Three patients had thrombocytopenia at the time of CVT diagnosis (5.4%) and most patients (n = 37, 72.5%) were treated medically with anticoagulation. Complication rate during hospitalization was 17.6% (n = 6), and no mortality was noted.
conclusionTwenty-seven percent of CVT patients were associated with COVID-19 infection or vaccination, and the majority presented within 30 days of infection/vaccination.
