Role of peak D-dimer in predicting mortality and venous thromboembolism in COVID-19 patients.

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
Covid 19 patients often present with elevated D-dimer levels. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the role of D-Dimer levels in Covid 19 patients to predict mortality and venous thromboembolism (VTE) events. This is a retrospective chart review study from 1 April 2020 to 30 June 2020, during the peak Covid pandemic. A total of 350 patients were enrolled in this study; 69 (19.7%) patients died; 12 (3.4%) had a deep venous thrombosis; and 8 (2.3%) had a pulmonary embolism outcome. Peak D-dimer levels were collected with median levels of 765 ng/ml (266, 3135). Patients with VTE outcomes had significantly higher levels of peak D-dimers than patients in the non-VTE group (4876 vs 680,
