Retroperitoneal hematoma in patients with COVID-19 infection during anticoagulant therapy: A case series and literature review.
Review in The Journal of international medical research, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Due to the hypercoagulable status of patients with severe COVID-19 infection, anticoagulants are often used to prevent thrombosis. However, these agents may cause bleeding events such as retroperitoneal hematoma (RPH). We report here on six patients with COVID-19 who developed RPH during treatment. Early evidence of bleeding led to confirmatory diagnosis with imaging. Four patients recovered with supportive treatment (IV fluids and blood transfusions) and two patients recovered by angioembolization. RPH should be considered in COVID patients on anticoagulants as soon as haemoglobin or blood pressure falls. Further studies are required to provide guidance and recommendations on use of anticoagulants in critically ill patients with COVID-19.
