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

During the COVID-19 pandemic, high rates of arterial and venous thromboembolic (VTE) events were noted in association with increased rates of major amputation. VTE appears to be a significant source of morbidity and mortality for this patient population and numerous methods have been described to achieve limb salvage. Nevertheless, best management remains unclear. We describe the case of a 60-year-old male with severe venous gangrene secondary to a non-occlusive mid-femoral and occlusive infrapopliteal deep venous thromboses associated with COVID-19 infection who ultimately underwent meticulous local wound care and transmetatarsal amputation, which allowed for maximal preservation of foot function and limb salvage.
