Evaluation of Pulmonary Functions After Discharge in Pediatric Patients with COVID-19: A Prospective Study.

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
Objectives: The aim of this study was to investigate the pulmonary function of pediatric patients with COVID-19 after recovery. Methods: Pediatric patients aged 5-18 years hospitalized with diagnoses of COVID-19 and discharged with recovery were included in this prospective study. Pulmonary function tests (PFTs) were performed through spirometry. Results: The patient group consisted of 34 children and the control group of 33. The forced vital capacity (FVC%) values of the control and patient groups were 110.62±11.71 and 94.21±13.68 (p<0.001), forced expiratory volume in the first second (FEV1%) values were 104.91±6.26 and 98.67±14.93 (p=0.032), FEV1/FVC% values were 108.50±8.81 and 101.06±24.89 (p=0.034), and forced expiratory flow (FEF) 25-75% values were 106.71±6.68 and 101.85±24.89, respectively (p=0.286). However, Spearman correlation analysis revealed moderate negative correlation between length of hospital stay and FEF 25-75% (r=-0.364, p=0.35). Conclusion: PFTs in pediatric patients after recovery from COVID-19 were abnormal in the present study. The results were significant in terms of the development of mixed-type lung disease. Further long- and short-term studies are now needed for a better understanding of the prognosis in these patients.
