Ovarian Vein Thrombosis: A Sequela of COVID-Associated Coagulopathy.
Review in Cureus, 2023. 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
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) causes endothelial damage, blood stasis, and an overall state of hypercoagulability. This makes COVID a huge risk factor for venous thromboembolism (VTE) and arterial thromboembolism (ATE). Twenty percent of COVID-19 patients suffer from coagulation abnormalities like pulmonary embolism, myocardial infarction, stroke, deep vein thrombosis, etc. Ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT) has been previously linked to post-partum period, pregnancy, hypercoagulable state, or malignancy. We analyzed PubMed and Google Scholar databases for research and publications regarding OVT in patients with COVID-19. The search yielded nine case reports. These case reports were found to implicate COVID-associated coagulopathy (CAC) as an additional risk factor for ovarian vein thrombosis (OVT). OVT most commonly presents with abdominal pain and fever, making it difficult to diagnose, owing to the similarity in presentation with multiple other pathologies. OVT can be diagnosed radiologically with ultrasound, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scan, or CT scan with IV contrast. CT has been used as the modality of choice for diagnosing OVT. Although rare, OVT can cause life-endangering complications by extension of thrombus into systemic veins or pulmonary artery embolization. Therefore, early diagnosis and treatment are vital. There is no official guideline for the treatment of OVT post-COVID. However, the literature supports the use of apixaban or enoxaparin/acenocoumarol.
