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 risk of venous thromboembolic (VTE) complications, mainly in the form of pulmonary embolism (PE) and deep vein thrombosis (DVT), in COVID-19 is well known, necessitating the administration of thrombotic prophylaxis in most patients. With a high risk of VTE complications or their presence, full anticoagulation may be associated with hemorrhagic complications. COVID-19 bleeding is rarely reported. Here, we present four cases of patients with muscle bleeding: two in the iliopsoas muscle, which resulted in death despite the embolization of the bleeding vessel, and two in the oblique and straight abdominal muscles, which were treated conservatively. In the reported cases, the severity of the bleeding coincided with the severity of the course of COVID-19. When observing a sudden drop in hemoglobin (Hb) in a patient with COVID-19, one must always remember the possible complications in the form of muscle bleeding, which can be fatal.
