The Functional Characterization of Venous Thromboembolic Disease (FUVID) study: rationale, design, and methods of a prospective, observational, multicenter study to evaluate mechanisms of exercise intolerance and dyspnea following pediatric pulmonary embolism.
Article in Research and practice in thrombosis and haemostasis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Background: To date, the focus of investigation in pediatric pulmonary embolism (PE) has been on PE recurrence and anticoagulant-related bleeding. While highly relevant, these outcomes do not fully capture functional limitations and the psychological impact that comprises post-PE syndrome. Objectives: The primary objective of the Functional Characterization of Venous Thromboembolic Disease (FUVID) study was to investigate mechanisms of post-PE syndrome in children. Methods: The ongoing FUVID study will prospectively enroll and systematically follow, over 12 months and with standardized pulmonary, cardiac, and muscle testing, a multicenter prospective cohort of 80 pediatric patients with first-episode PE without comorbidities. FUVID has 2 coprimary outcomes: exercise intolerance and exertional dyspnea. Exercise intolerance will be defined objectively as a percent predicted peak oxygen uptake based on ideal body weight or milliliters per minute per kilogram of lean body mass during cardiopulmonary exercise testing. Dyspnea will be objectively quantified using Borg questionnaires and defined as a mean difference of >1 at the end of the warm-up and submaximal work rates during exercise testing, simulating conditions during daily life that induce dyspnea. Pertinent secondary outcomes include anxiety, depression, and quality of life. Conclusion: The FUVID study will investigate the relationship between symptoms (exercise intolerance and exertional dyspnea) and multiple mechanisms-hemodynamic, ventilatory, or peripheral/muscle-within the same patient at rest, submaximal exercise (simulating activities of daily living), and maximal exercise using objective measures. It will provide new evidence for selecting patients for long-term follow-up, including psychological sequelae, after PE, the modalities this follow-up should include, and the findings interpreted as indicating functional limitations after PE.
