Nosocomial COVID-19. Prospective study in a referral hospital.
Observational study in Medicina clinica, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
BACKGROUND AND
objectiveThe objective was to describe the clinical characteristics and prognosis of patients with nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection.
methodsAn observational and prospective study was performed in a referral hospital. We included all adult patients diagnosed with nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection in October 2020. Nosocomial infection was defined as a negative PCR for SARS-CoV-2 on admission and a positive PCR after 7 days of hospitalization.
resultsWe included 66 cases of nosocomial SARS-CoV-2 infection: 39 (59%) men, median age at diagnosis was 74.5 years (IQR 56.8-83.1) and median Charlson comorbidity index was 3 points (IQR 1-5). Twenty-seven (41%) developed pneumonia and 13 (20%) died during admission. Mortality at 28 days was 33% (22 patients). Mortality at 28 days in the 242 patients with community-acquired SARS-CoV-2 infection who were hospitalized during the same period was 10%.
conclusionsPreventive measures and early detection of nosocomial outbreaks of COVID-19 should be prioritized to minimize the negative impact of this infection.
