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

Renal vein thrombosis (RVT) is a rare condition characterized by the formation of a blood clot in one or both of the renal veins. Bilateral involvement is more common, but when the condition affects only one side, it usually occurs on the left due to more extensive venous vasculature compared to the right side. RVT can be caused by various factors such as trauma, dehydration, malignancy, and a hypercoagulable state. Acute RVT is typically more severe than chronic, and it can cause symptoms such as renal infarction, acute kidney injury, renal failure, severe flank pain, and hematuria. Some cases of RVT have also been linked to coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which is widely recognized to induce a hypercoagulable state. The standard treatment for RVT is warfarin but in this case report, we describe a COVID-19 patient with RVT whose thrombus was successfully treated with direct-acting oral anticoagulant (DOAC) apixaban for six months.
