Therapeutic versus prophylactic anticoagulation for patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19 and elevated D-dimer concentration (ACTION): an open-label, multicentre, randomised, controlled trial.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the efficacy and safety of therapeutic versus prophylactic anticoagulation in patients hospitalised with COVID-19 in 31 sites in Brazil, and found that in the case of stable patients, in-hospital oral rivaroxaban (20 mg or 15 mg daily) or initial subcutaneous enoxaparin (1 mg/kg twice per day) or intravenous unfractionated heparin (to achieve a 0·3-0·7 IU/mL anti-Xa concentration) for clinically unstable patients, followed

Aspirin in patients admitted to hospital with COVID-19 (RECOVERY): a randomised, controlled, open-label, platform trial

- 01 Jan 2022 - 
TL;DR: Aspirin has been proposed as a treatment for COVID-19 on the basis of its anti-thrombotic properties as discussed by the authors , and a 1:1 ratio to either usual standard care plus 150 mg aspirin once per day until discharge or usual standard of care alone using web-based simple (unstratified) randomisation with allocation concealment.

Quantifying heterogeneity in a meta‐analysis

TL;DR: It is concluded that H and I2, which can usually be calculated for published meta-analyses, are particularly useful summaries of the impact of heterogeneity, and one or both should be presented in publishedMeta-an analyses in preference to the test for heterogeneity.
