[Risk factors at admission associated with intubation in patients with COVID-19].
Observational study in Revista medica del Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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: Intubation rates up to 33% have been found in patients diagnosed with COVID-19. Some cohorts have reported the presence of dyspnea in 84.1% of intubated patients, being this the only symptom associated with intubation. Oxygen saturation < 90% and increased respiratory rate have also been described as predictors of intubation. Objective: To analyze the risk factors associated with intubation in patients hospitalized for COVID-19 at their admission. Material and methods: An observational, retrospective, analytical, cross-sectional study was carried out. The universe of study consisted of patients over 18 years of age hospitalized due to a diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 virus infection from April 1, 2020 to April 31, 2021 in the Hospital de Especialidades (Specialties Hospital) "Dr. Bernardo Sepúlveda Gutiérrez" at the National Medical Center. Results: The mean age of intubated patients was 59.17 years (95% confidence interval [95% CI] -9.994 to -3.299, p < 0.001). Overall, 76.7% (230) of patients had a history of one or more preexisting comorbidities, including hypertension in 42.3% (127), obesity in 36.7% (110), and diabetes mellitus in 34.3% (103). Conclusions: The main clinical characteristics of patients hospitalized for COVID-19 in our center who required intubation are very similar to those observed in different centers, including male sex, age over 50 years and obesity, which were the most common.
