Immature Platelets and Platelet Reactivity in Patients with COVID-19.

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
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with a high incidence of thromboembolic events, both venous and arterial. There are currently no specific clinical or laboratory markers to guide antithrombotic therapy for COVID-19 patients. Immature platelets represent a population of hyper-reactive platelets associated with arterial thrombotic events. This prospective study compared consecutive severe COVID-19 patients (n = 53, median age = 73 years) versus patients with sepsis from another origin (n = 41, median age = 69 years). Total platelet counts, immature platelet fraction (IPF) and immature platelet count (IPC) were determined by the Sysmex XN-3000 auto-analyzer on admission and at subsequent time-points. IPC levels three days after admission were significantly higher in the COVID-19 group compared to the sepsis group (13.4 × 10
