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
aimTo analyze a sample of pregnant patients who underwent pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy to rule out suspicion of pulmonary embolism (PE) during the acute COVID-19 infection hospitalization period in our hospital. MATERIAL AND
methodsSPECT scintigraphy with a reduced dose (111MBq) of
resultsOnly one of the 5 patients was diagnosed with PE. Two patients showed pathological scintigraphy findings attributable to radiological alterations due to COVID-19 pneumonia, and the other two had normal pulmonary perfusion.
conclusionGiven the non-specific features of the clinical manifestations and d-dimer values in COVID-19, as well as their similarity to those of PE, pulmonary perfusion scintigraphy plays a crucial role in the screening of PE in these patients due to its high sensitivity and lower irradiation compared to CT. Despite the limited number of patients, the results obtained have special relevance due to the absence of scientific publications in this group of patients within the exceptional context of the COVID-19 pandemic.
