Thromboembolic complications during and after hospitalization for COVID-19: Incidence, risk factors and thromboprophylaxis.
Article in Thrombosis update, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: The incidence of thromboembolism during COVID-19 and the use of thromboprophylaxis vary greatly between studies. Only a few studies have investigated the rate of thromboembolism post-discharge. This study determined the 90-day incidence of venous and arterial thromboembolic complications, risk factors for venous thromboembolic events and characterized the use of thromboprophylaxis during and after hospitalization. Materials and methods: We retrospectively reviewed medical records for adult patients hospitalized for >24 h for COVID-19 before May 15, 2020, in ten Norwegian hospitals. We extracted data on demographics, thromboembolic complications, thromboembolic risk factors, and the use of thromboprophylaxis. Cox proportional hazards regression was used to determine risk factors for VTE. Results: 550 patients were included. The 90-day incidence of arterial and venous thromboembolism in hospitalized patients was 6.9% (95% CI: 5.1-9.3) overall and 13.8% in the ICU. Male sex (hazard ratio (HR) 7.44, 95% CI 1.73-32.02, Conclusions: The 90-day incidence of thromboembolism in COVID-19 patients was 7%, but <1% after discharge. Risk factors were male sex and previous VTE. Most patients received thromboprophylaxis during hospitalization, but only <10% after discharge.
