Electrocardiographic Findings and Clinical Outcome in Patients with COVID-19 or Other Acute Infectious Respiratory Diseases.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 9 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
backgroundCardiac involvement in coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 infection (COVID-19) has been reported in a sizeable proportion of patients and associated with a negative outcome; furthermore, a pre-existing heart disease is associated with increased mortality in these patients. In this prospective single-center case-control study we investigated whether COVID-19 patients present different rates and clinical implications of an abnormal electrocardiogram (ECG) compared to patients with an acute infectious respiratory disease (AIRD) caused by other pathogens.
methodsWe studied 556 consecutive patients admitted to the emergency department of our hospital with symptoms of AIRD; 324 were diagnosed to have COVID-19 and 232 other causes of AIRD (no-COVID-19 group). Standard 12-lead ECG performed on admission was assessed for various kinds of abnormalities, including ST segment/T wave changes, atrial fibrillation, ventricular arrhythmias, and intraventricular conduction disorders.
resultsECG abnormalities were found in 120 (37.0%) and 101 (43.5%) COVID-19 and no-COVID-19 groups, respectively (
conclusionAmong patients hospitalized because of AIRD, we found no significant differences in abnormal ECG findings between COVID-19 vs. no-COVID-19 patients. The ECG on admission was helpful to identify patients with increased risk of death in both groups of patients.
