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

Background: Patients with COVID-19 are at greater risk of pulmonary embolism. Objective: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the monthly prevalence of pulmonary embolism diagnosed by angiotomography and mortality between March 2020 and May 2021 in more than 6000 patients hospitalized with COVID-19 at a single institution. Methods: A clinical trial was conducted with evaluated medical records the patients hospitalized at the institution who developed pulmonary embolism determined by angiotomography. Monthly and overall mortality rates between March 2020 and May 2021 in this population were evaluated. Results: A total of 6040 patients were hospitalized in this period, 203 of whom (3.36%) had an angiotomographic diagnosis of pulmonary embolism and 119 of these patients (58.62%) died. The largest number of patients with pulmonary embolism occurred in the periods from July to September 2020 and March to May 2021. No significant difference was found between mortality and the two peaks of the pandemic (p = 0.9, Fisher's exact test). Conclusion: Pulmonary embolism is associated a higher mortality rate among patients with COVID-19. Therefore, one of the strategies is an emphasis on the prevention of thrombotic and embolic events.
