Risk of Venous Thromboembolism in Infectious Diseases: A Literature Review.
Review in Pathogens (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
Systemic or localized infections increase the risk of venous thromboembolism (VTE). All types of infection can elevate the risk of VTE thrombosis, although some appear to increase risk more than others. In the current narrative review, we seek to overview the available evidence related to the epidemiology of VTE caused by infections. We focused on patients with infection in community setting or hospitalized, on patients with COVID-19, HIV infection, tuberculosis, HCV infection, and CMV infection, as well as on individuals with other types of infection that might increase the risk of VTE. Moreover, we tried to evaluate how the risk of VTE in person with different types of infections could be addressed in clinical practice with the use of anticoagulants. Extended VTE prophylaxis may not be warranted for all infections, but may be very helpful for some, such as those with intra-abdominal infection, systemic bloodstream infection, lower respiratory infection, and symptomatic urinary tract infection.
