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

COVID-19 is currently a major cause of morbidity and mortality in adults throughout the world. Given the high infection rate, it is increasingly likely that histopathologists will encounter this disease during their practice. Although COVID-19 is increasingly recognized as a multi-system disease, the lungs and, to a lesser degree, the heart remain the major sites of pathology. This article aims to acquaint the general histopathologist with the main pathological findings in the lungs and heart of adults with COVID-19. It highlights the need for clinicopathological correlation with a discussion of the cardiopulmonary clinical features in COVID-19 and relates those to the pathological findings. In the lungs, diffuse alveolar damage is emphasized with its variety of morphological appearances over time. It concludes with a discussion of the main techniques available to identify the virus in fixed tissues and their potential limitations related specifically to the heart and lungs.
