Study of Arterial Blood Gas Analysis in Moderate-to-Severe COVID-19 Patients.
Article in Cureus, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Background The high prevalence of pneumonia and renal involvement in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) leads to frequent acid-base abnormalities in serious patients and affects prognosis. In this study, we aimed to assess the arterial blood gas (ABG) and acid-base patterns in COVID-19 patients admitted to a tertiary care hospital. Methodology A retrospective observational study was conducted in a designated COVID-19 hospital involving 267 reverse transcription-polymerasechain reaction-positive COVID-19 patients. Demographic and laboratory data including ABG data within the first day after admission and in patients with multiple ABG analyses, only the first measurement was collected and analyzed statistically, including its association with comorbidities. Results The most common age group of the patients was 51-60 years (30.8%), with a male predominance (male:female = 2.7:1). The most common comorbidities were hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease found in 147 (55%) COVID-19 patients. Alkalosis and acidosis were observed in 145 (54.3%) and 50 (18.7%) patients, respectively. The most common ABG abnormality observed was primary respiratory alkalosis with secondary metabolic acidosis in 67 (25.1%) patients, followed by primary respiratory alkalosis with secondary metabolic alkalosis in 54 (20.2%) patients. Statistically significant negative correlation was found with PaCO
