1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundPatients with severe 2019 novel coronavirus disease (COVID-19) have a high mortality rate. The early identification of severe COVID-19 is of critical concern. In addition, the correlation between the immunological features and clinical outcomes in severe cases needs to be explored.

objectiveTo build a nomogram for identifying patients with severe COVID-19 and explore the immunological features correlating with fatal outcomes.

methodsWe retrospectively enrolled 85 and 41 patients with COVID-19 in primary and validation cohorts, respectively. A predictive nomogram based on risk factors for severe COVID-19 was constructed using the primary cohort and evaluated internally and externally. In addition, in the validation cohort, immunological features in patients with severe COVID-19 were analyzed and correlated with disease outcomes.

resultsThe risk prediction nomogram incorporating age, C-reactive protein, and D-dimer for early identification of patients with severe COVID-19 showed favorable discrimination in both the primary (area under the curve [AUC] 0.807) and validation cohorts (AUC 0.902) and was well calibrated. Patients who died from COVID-19 showed lower abundance of peripheral CD45RO

conclusionThe novel nomogram aided the early identification of severe COVID-19 cases. In addition, the abundance of CD45RO
