Prevalence of cardiac involvement in home-based recovered coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients: a retrospective observational study.
Observational study in Irish journal of medical science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers, 2 of them syntheses 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
objectiveCoronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has a risk of cardiac arrhythmia, acute coronary syndrome, heart failure and myocarditis, and the prognosis of COVID-19 has been associated with cardiovascular symptoms. However, there has not been enough information about cardiovascular involvement in patients who had recovered home-based mild symptoms of COVID-19 infection. Therefore, this study evaluates the prevalence of cardiac involvement and associated factors in home-based recovered COVİD-19 patients. SUBJECT AND
methodsA total of 64 participants who applied to cardiology outpatient clinics with cardiac symptoms after recovering from COVID infection were recorded between April and December 2020. The patients were divided into two according to cardiovascular involvement in the cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging results.
resultsNo significant difference between the two groups regarding age and co-morbidities. Patients with cardiac involvement had higher C-reactive protein compared to without cardiac involvement patients. A total of 46 patients who recently recovered from COVID-19 had abnormal CMR findings such as myocardial late gadolinium enhancement or pericardial enhancement. In addition, the left ventricular ejection fraction and stroke volume were significantly lower in the cardiac involvement patients.
conclusionWe demonstrate cardiac involvement in 46 patients (71%) with recent COVID-19, independent of pre-existing conditions. This indicates that there may be widespread cardiac involvement without high troponin values or severe clinical symptoms.
