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

The novel coronavirus disease (Covid-19) continues to spread all over the world with acute respiratory distress syndrome and multiorgan failure being a significant cause of morbidity and mortality. The involvement of the cardiovascular system is associated with increased mortality and there have been various manifestations reported in the literature. We present a case of a patient requiring intensive care unit (ICU) admission for acute respiratory distress syndrome from Covid-19 who developed ST elevations in inferior leads in electrocardiogram (ECG) and elevated troponins. The changes resolved in serial ECG accompanied by normalization of blood troponin levels. His subsequent echocardiogram did not reveal any abnormalities in wall motion or heart function leading to a diagnosis of focal pericarditis mimicking an acute myocardial infarction. We also present a review of literature on various cardiac manifestations reported so far in cases of Covid-19.
