Analysis of Adrenocorticotropic Hormone and Cortisol Levels in Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome COVID-19 Patients.
Article in Disease markers, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Objective: SARS-CoV-2 infection may cause multiple organ failure. However, scarce information can be found on the impact on the endocrine system. This study was conducted to determine plasma Adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) and plasma cortisol levels in a cohort of COVID-19 patients with Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome (ARDS). Methods: A prospective cohort study was conducted on COVID-19 patients who manifested ARDS and were admitted to the ICU of Dr. Soetomo Tertiary Hospital, Surabaya, Indonesia. Morning plasma ACTH and plasma total cortisol were measured on 45 recruited patients. The outcome of the patient was justified based on the survivance on days 7th and 30th during the follow-up with groupings of surviving for survived patients and nonsurvive for deceased patients. Results: The ACTH and cortisol median were 1.06 (0.5-64.57) pg/mL and 17.61 (0.78-75) Conclusion: ACTH or cortisol alone has no correlation to the outcome of these patients. Therefore, further study of the potential use of corticosteroid treatments guided by ACTH and cortisol levels in reducing the risk of ARDS warrants further investigation.
