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

Background: Although COVID-19 has spread in Côte d'Ivoire, there is no report that summarizes the comorbidities of COVID-19 death cases. Objective: To verify the types and prevalence of commodities associated with recorded COVID-19 deaths compared with the general adult population in Côte d'Ivoire. Methods: Data on the comorbidities of COVID-19 deaths and the country's disease structure were collected from official government reports and WHO's reports. Results: Among 67 patients studied, the biggest age group was 60-69 years old with 23 people (34%). Fifty-four patients (81%) had non-communicable diseases (NCDs) as comorbidities. The prevalence ratio between COVID-19 deaths and general adult population was 8.96 [95% Confidence Interval: 6.86-11.68] for diabetes, 1.74 [1.27-2.37] for hypertension, and 2.16 [1.32-3.51] for obesity. Conclusions: To reduce the risk of death from COVID-19 in Côte d'Ivoire, focused infection prevention measures for elderly and diabetic patients are needed.
