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

COVID-19 patients may experience acute mesenteric ischaemia. Identifying acute mesenteric ischaemia is challenging, particularly as initial symptoms are often vague and easily overlooked. Early detection and immediate intervention to restore blood flow can prevent these severe consequences. Presented in this report are two cases of superior mesenteric artery (SMA) thrombosis following severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. CT scans demonstrated SMA thrombosis in both patients, with no evidence of bowel necrosis. Endovascular intervention with self-expanding stent placement was performed after angiographic confirmation of the diagnosis. At 6-month follow-up, both patients remained asymptomatic on dual antiplatelet therapy. Atypical gastrointestinal manifestations in COVID-19 patients should raise suspicion for uncommon complications, such as SMA thrombosis. For SMA occlusion without associated bowel necrosis, endovascular therapy represents a viable treatment approach.
