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

Acute arterial thrombosis is a rare but dangerous condition that requires rapid diagnosis and treatment to reduce the risk of amputation. SARS-CoV-2 is associated with an increased risk of arterial thrombosis. Point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) can facilitate rapid bedside evaluation for both venous and arterial thrombosis and expedite treatment in these time-sensitive diagnoses. Although POCUS diagnosis of venous thrombosis is well studied, few cases of POCUS diagnosis of arterial thrombosis have been reported. We present a case in which acute SARS-CoV-2-associated arterial and venous thromboses were diagnosed at the bedside utilizing POCUS, which led to expedited operative management and limb preservation.
