Can COVID-19 Increase Platelet in Adult Immune Thrombocytopenia During the TPO-RA Administration? A Real-World Observational Study.
Article in Journal of blood medicine, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Introduction: COVID-19 infection has brought new challenges to the treatment of adult patients with immune thrombocytopenia (ITP). In adult ITP patients, there have been no relevant reports exploring the incidence, clinical characteristics, and risk factors of platelet elevation after COVID-19 infection. Materials and Methods: A total of 66 patients with previously diagnosed ITP from December 2022 to February 2023 in a single-center were collected and analyzed for this real-world clinical retrospective observational study. Results: In the platelet count increased group (n = 19), 13 patients (68.4%) were using thrombopoietin receptor agonists (TPO-RA) treatment at the time of COVID-19 infection; the median platelet count was 52 (2-207) ×10 Conclusion: This study showed that some adult ITP patients had an increase in platelet count after COVID-19 infection, and this phenomenon was strongly associated with the use of TPO-RA at the time of infection. Although no thrombotic events were observed in this study, it reminds clinicians that they should be alert to the possibility of thrombotic events in the long-term management of adult ITP patients during the COVID-19 pandemic.
