1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

The purpose of this study was to compare the prognostic value of chest X-ray (CXR) and chest computed tomography (CT) in a group of hospitalized patients with COVID-19. For this study, we retrospectively selected a cohort of 106 hospitalized patients with COVID-19 who underwent both CXR and chest CT at admission. For each patient, the pulmonary involvement was ranked by applying the Brixia score for CXR and the percentage of well-aerated lung (WAL) for CT. The Brixia score was assigned at admission (A-Brixia score) and during hospitalization. During hospitalization, only the highest score (H-Brixia score) was considered. At admission, the percentage of WAL (A-CT%WAL) was quantified using a dedicated software. On logistic regression analyses, H-Brixia score was the most effective radiological marker for predicting in-hospital mortality and invasive mechanical ventilation. Additionally, A-CT%WAL did not provide substantial advantages in the risk stratification of hospitalized patients with COVID-19 compared to A-Brixia score.
