Profil clinique, biologique et radiologique des patients Algériens hospitalisés pour COVID-19: données préliminaires.
Article in The Pan African medical journal, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 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
introductionAucune étude antérieure n'a élaboré le profil des patients Algériens hospitalisés pour COVID-19. L'objectif de cette étude était de déterminer le profil clinique, biologique et tomodensitométrique des patients Algériens hospitalisés pour COVID-19. MÉTHODES: Une étude prospective était menée auprès des patients hospitalisés pour COVID-19 (période: 19 mars-30 avril 2020). Les données cliniques, biologiques et radiologiques, le type de traitement reçu et la durée de l'hospitalisation étaient notés. RÉSULTATS: Le profil clinique des 86 patients atteints de COVID-19 était un homme non-fumeur, âgé de 53 ans, qui était dans 42% des cas en contact avec un cas suspect/confirmé de COVID-19 et ayant une comorbidité dans 70% des cas (hypertension artérielle, diabète sucré, pathologie respiratoire chronique et allergie, cardiopathie). Les plaintes cliniques étaient dominées par la triade «asthénie-fièvre-toux» dans plus de 70% des cas. Les anomalies biologiques les plus fréquentes étaient: syndrome inflammatoire biologique (90,1%), basocytémie (70,8%), lymphopénie (53,3%), augmentation de la lactico-deshydrogénase (52,2%), anémie (38,7%), augmentation de la phosphokinase (28,8%) et cytolyse hépatique (27,6%). Les signes tomodensitométriques les plus fréquents étaient: verre dépoli (91,8%), condensations alvéolaires (61,2%), verre dépoli en plage (60,0%), et verre dépoli nodulaire (55,3%). Un traitement à base de «chloroquine, azithromycine, zinc, vitamine C, enoxaparine, double antibiothérapie et ± corticoïdes» était prescrit chez 34,9% des patients. La moyenne de la durée d'hospitalisation était de 7±3 jours.
conclusionLa connaissance des profils des formes modérées et sévères du COVID-19 contribuerait à faire progresser les stratégies de contrôle de l'infection en Algérie.
