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

We aimed to better understand the racially-/ethnically-specific COVID-19-related outcomes, with respect to time, to respond more effectively to emerging variants. Surveillance data from Oklahoma City-County (12 March 2020-31 May 2021) were used to summarize COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, deaths, and COVID-19 vaccination status by racial/ethnic group and ZIP code. We estimated racially-/ethnically-specific daily hospitalization rates, the proportion of cases hospitalized, and disease odds ratios (OR) adjusting for sex, age, and the presence of at least one comorbidity. Hot spot analysis was performed using normalized values of cases, hospitalizations, and deaths generated from incidence rates per 100,000 population. During the study period, there were 103,030 confirmed cases, 3457 COVID-19-related hospitalizations, and 1500 COVID-19-related deaths. The daily 7-day average hospitalization rate for Hispanics peaked earlier than other groups and reached a maximum (3.0/100,000) in July 2020. The proportion of cases hospitalized by race/ethnicity was 6.09% among non-Hispanic Blacks, 5.48% among non-Hispanic Whites, 3.66% among Hispanics, 3.43% among American Indians, and 2.87% among Asian/Pacific Islanders. COVID-19 hot spots were identified in ZIP codes with minority communities. The Hispanic population experienced the first surge in COVID-19 cases and hospitalizations, while non-Hispanic Blacks ultimately bore the highest burden of COVID-19-related hospitalizations and deaths.
