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

In the last 3 years, COVID-19 pandemic has produced great impacts on global population in terms of health and social costs. Pneumonia represents only one of several pathologies associated to COVID-19 disease. Among these, the cerebral venous thrombosis (CVT), constitutes an important cause of stroke. Here, we report a case of CVT diagnosed approximately 2 weeks after first dose of Pfizer-BioNTech vaccination, in a patient affected by COVID-19 few months earlier. He presented with headache and severe asthenia. The laboratory tests put in evidence thrombocytopenia and D-dimer elevation. A brain magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and a computed tomography (CT) demonstrated hemorrhagic and ischemic phenomena on the right ventral thalamic nuclei, left thalamus, hippocampal and parahippocampal regions and the splenium of the corpus callosum. The study revealed a poorly opacified vein of Galeno and straight sinus. Heparin administration improved his clinical status; platelets values also arose over time.
