Correlation between chest CT severity score and laboratory indicators in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19).
Article in International journal of clinical practice, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 papers.
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
objectiveThe association between computed tomography (CT) and clinical severity of COVID-19 has been demonstrated. However, there are few studies on CT and laboratory indicators in patients in COVID-19. Our aim was to explore the correlation between chest CT images and laboratory indicators of patients with COVID-19 pneumonia.
methodsThis was a retrospective study of patients with COVID-19 diagnosed and treated at the Affiliated Hospital of Putian University from 24 January 2020 to 6 March 2020. The correlation test between first chest CT score and blood cell analysis, C-reactive protein (CRP), erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), blood biochemistry and T lymphocyte subsets (T-Ls) was investigated.
resultsAmong the 56 patients, there were 36 (64.3%) males and 20 (35.7%) females. The mean age of the patients was 46.54 ± 15.82 (range, 15-86) years. The CT score in the moderate group was higher than in the mild group (5.06 ± 0.77 vs 1.87 ± 0.88, P < .05), and higher in the severe group than in the moderate and mild groups (10.71 ± 4.21, P < .05). In addition, the ESR was significantly higher in the severe group than mild group (32.00 (26.04, 58.24) vs 11.00 (7.84, 24.70) mm/h, P < .05). The CD3, CD4, CD8 and CD4/CD8 cells were not different (all P > .05). The CT scores of all patients correlated positively with CRP, LDH and ESR (all P < .01).
conclusionThe chest CT characteristics of patients with COVID-19 correlated positively with CRP, ESR and LDH, which may use one of the indicators for the assessment of disease severity.
