Temporal progression of sepsis on critical care COVID-19 patients: a retrospective cohort study.
Article in Revista da Associacao Medica Brasileira (1992), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectiveThis study aimed to describe sepsis progression in critical COVID-19 patients using the SOFA score and investigate its relationship with mortality.
methodsThree researchers collected and analyzed retrospective clinical and laboratory data found in electronic health records from all patients admitted to a severe COVID-19 exclusive intensive care unit from March 2020 to October 2020. Mixed-effect logistic regression was used to evaluate SOFA (Sepsis-3) score variables as mortality prediction markers, while Kaplan-Meier survival curves were used to compare mortality between groups of patients. Cox proportional hazard models were used to further stratify mortality association between variants.
resultsA total of 73 patients were included. Temporal COVID-19-related sepsis progression analysis indicates difference in degrees and timing between different organ dysfunction over time. Sepsis-3 Cardiovascular Dysfunction characterized by severe hypotension added to the use of any vasopressor drugs was the only parameter associated with in-hospital death during the first 5 days of hospital admission (OR 2.19; 95%CI 1.14-4.20; p=0.01).
conclusionIncreased Sepsis-3 Cardiovascular Dysfunction score, characterized as hypotension associated with the use of vasopressor drugs in the first days of intensive care unit stay, is related to higher mortality in COVID-19 patients and may be a useful prognostic prediction tool.
