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

Although COVID-19 was primarily considered a respiratory illness, rapidly accumulating data suggest that COVID-19 is associated with a high incidence of venous thromboembolic complications. The primary objective of this review article was to reveal whether we need to increase awareness of pulmonary embolism in the period following the COVID-19 infection given that the epidemiologic facts are still poor. A literature search and a critical review of the collected studies were conducted. An electronic search of PubMed, Science Direct Scopus, Google Scholar, and Excerpta Medica Database (EMBASE) from June 2020 until June 2022. The long-term health consequences of COVID-19 remain largely unclear. This review highlights the importance of awareness of the potentially increased incidence of venous thromboembolism in post-COVID-19 patients, even those with mild or asymptomatic disease. Further research is required to establish appropriate clinical management guidelines for the prevention of thromboembolic complications in the post-COVID-19 period.
