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
Patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP) under eltrombopag therapy are vulnerable to thrombotic disbalance, both due to the disease itself and therapy-related hypercoagulability. Vascular events such as the development of a free-floating carotid thrombus are known rare complications of acute COVID-19 infections due to endothelial inflammation and presumptive underlying hypercoagulable state. In patients at risk, the onset of new focal neurological symptoms should prompt immediate angiographic diagnostics and, if necessary, appropriate treatment. Here, we report a case of a 38-year-old female with a medical history of ITP and the presence of COVID-19 infection presenting an acute sensorimotor hemiparesis of the right side while on eltrombopag therapy. Initial CT angiography revealed a free-floating thrombus in the left common carotid artery. Upon admission, the patient's platelet count was significantly elevated at 896 × 10
