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

Aim: To delineate and analyze the mortality from COVID -19 in our institute during the devastating second wave of pandemic. Settings and Design: A retrospective cohort analysis. Methods and Materials: A comprehensive mortality analysis of 142 laboratory-confirmed severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2-infected deceased patients from our hospital's medical records was done. These patients presented with severe disease at the time of admission and were managed in intensive care units. Statistical Analysis Used: Statistical Package for Social Sciences software, IBM manufacturer, Chicago, USA, version 21.0 was used. Results: The number of deceased males (82, 62.6%) was higher than females (53, 37.3%). Median age of deceased patient was 57 (44.25-69.75) years. Most frequent comorbidities were diabetes mellitus (42, 29.6%) and hypertension (41, 28.9%). Most common symptoms being shortness of breath (137, 96.5%), fever (94, 66.2%) and cough (73, 51.4%). Median peripheral capillary oxygen saturation (SpO2) at time of admission was 86% (77.25-90). Median time interval from symptom onset to admission in hospital was 3 (2.25-5) days. Neutrophil lymphocyte ratio was more than 5 in 117 (90.7%) patients. Complications seen were acute respiratory distress syndrome in 82.3%, acute liver injury in 58.4%, acute kidney injury in 26.7%, sepsis in 13.3% and acute cardiac injury in 12% patients. The median high-resolution computed tomography score was 20 (17-22). Conclusions: Male and elderly patients with underlying comorbidities had poorer outcome and involvement of multiple organ systems was common. A short time interval between symptom onset and admission/mortality, particularly encountered was worrisome.
