Immature Platelet Fraction as a Surrogate Marker of Thrombo-Inflammation in Hospitalized COVID-19 Patients.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Although COVID-19 is associated with significant thrombo-inflammatory complications, reliable biomarkers to guide antithrombotic therapy remain limited. Immature platelet fraction (IPF) reflects platelet turnover and may indicate heightened thrombotic risk. We retrospectively analyzed 133 hospitalized COVID-19 patients (median age 68 years) at a single center. IPF and inflammatory markers (WBC, ANC, D-dimer, LDH, CRP) were measured on admission. Correlations between IPF and these biomarkers were assessed overall and in clinical subgroups (age, sex, disease severity, comorbidities, and treatment). We found that IPF was positively correlated with WBC and ANC in patients less than 70 years old (r = 0.36 and 0.33, respectively;
