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

Introduction: Sporadic cases of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) have been described in the literature in association with COVID-19 infection and vaccination in adults and pediatric patients. The exact mechanisms underlying COVID-19-associated thrombotic microangiopathies (TMAs) remain incompletely understood. Herein, we present a detailed meta-analysis of the clinical characteristics, outcomes, and management strategies of COVID-19-associated aHUS and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura (TTP). Methods: This study was performed following the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses updated guidelines. PubMed was utilized for searching for case reports and series. Adverse outcome at last follow-up was defined as estimated glomerular filtration rate < 30 ml/min per 1.73 m Results: Our analysis cohort included 118 studies reporting on 170 patients. These included 84 cases of aHUS and 86 cases of TTP resulting from COVID-19 infection ( Conclusion: COVID-19 infection and vaccination are a potential trigger for onset or relapse of aHUS and TTP, especially in patients who are not on maintenance complement inhibitors or immunosuppression.
