Relationship between chest CT scan findings with SOFA score, CRP, comorbidity, and mortality in ICU patients with COVID-19.

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
objectiveThis study aimed to investigate the relationship between chest computed tomography (CT) scan findings with sequential organ failure assessment (SOFA) score, C-reactive protein (CRP), comorbidity, and mortality in intensive care unit (ICU) patients with coronavirus disease 19 (COVID-19).
methodAdult patients (≥18 years old) with COVID-19 who were consecutively admitted to the Imam-Reza Hospital, Tabriz, East-Azerbaijan Province, North-West of Iran between March 2020 and August 2020 were screened and total of 168 patients were included. Demographic, clinical, and mortality data were gathered. Severity of disease was evaluated using the SOFA score system. CRP levels were measured and chest CT scans were performed.
resultsMost of patients had multifocal and bilateral ground glass opacity (GGO) pattern in chest CT scan. There were significant correlations between SOFA score on admission with multifocal and bilateral GGO (P = .010 and P = .011, respectively). Significant relationships were observed between unilateral and bilateral GGO patterns with CRP (P = .049 and P = .046, respectively). There was significant relationship between GGO patterns with comorbidities including overweight/obesity, heart failure, cardiovascular diseases, and malignancy (P < .05). No significant relationships were observed between chest CT scan results with mortality (P > .05).
conclusionMultifocal bilateral GGO was the most common pattern. Although chest CT scan characteristics were significantly related with SOFA score, CRP, and comorbidity in ICU patients with COVID-19, a relationship with mortality was not significant.
