Free-Floating Thrombus of the Aorta: A Rare Complication of COVID-19-Induced Hypercoagulability.
Article in Cureus, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Free-floating thrombus (FFT) of the aorta is a rare condition characterized by a nonadherent portion of thrombus floating within the aortic lumen. Hypercoagulability is a well-known complication of COVID-19 infection, and thromboses related to COVID-19-related hypercoagulability commonly present in the form of venous or arterial thrombosis such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT), pulmonary embolism (PE), ischemic stroke, and myocardial infarction. Unfortunately, FFT associated with COVID-19 infection has been rarely reported in the literature. We report the case of a 53-year-old female patient with an unusual presentation of a pedunculated thrombus in the descending thoracic aorta caused by COVID-19-related hypercoagulability. The patient was treated with anticoagulation therapy and did not require invasive procedures. FFT is a rare but potentially catastrophic complication of COVID-19 infection. Rapid diagnosis and treatment are vital to prevent complications like limb ischemia and stroke.
