Pressure injuries during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic: A retrospective, case-control study.
Article in Journal of tissue viability, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
aim of studyThe main objective of this study was to ascertain whether severe alterations in hypoxemic, inflammatory, and nutritional parameters in patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection were associated with the occurrence and severity of developed dependency-related injuries. The secondary objective was to determine whether there were prognostic factors associated with the occurrence and severity of developed dependency-related injuries during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. MATERIAL AND
methodsA retrospective, single-centre, case-control study was conducted to compare SARS-CoV-2 patients who developed dependency-related injuries after the first 48 h after admission with a control group made up of SARS-CoV-2 patients without dependency-related injuries. The cases of the 1987 patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection during the study period were reviewed. Data from 94 patients who developed dependency-related injuries and from 190 patients who did not develop them during hospital admission were analysed.
resultsHigh baseline dependency levels, prolonged hospital stays, and low oxygen saturation levels on arrival in emergency department triage were associated with the occurrence of dependency-related injuries among patients diagnosed with SARS-CoV-2 infection.
conclusionsSARS-CoV-2 infection can lead to complications such as dependency-related injuries. Although there are several non-modifiable variables associated with the occurrence of dependency-related injuries in these patients, it is essential to conduct further research and introduce consensus guidelines to reduce their incidence and prevalence.
