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

objectiveTo better manage the burden of the COVID-19 pandemic on hospitals, numerous scheduled procedures have been postponed nationwide. DESIGN AND

methodsRetrospective analysis of patient characteristics and outcomes of patients hospitalized with peripheral arterial disease (PAD) in the period prior to the COVID-19 pandemic (2018 and 2019) and during the pandemic (2020 and 2021). This study assesses the in-hospital outcomes. Main endpoints are Rutherford stages at admission for intervention, incidence of amputation, of total occlusion, and duration of intervention. The data were analyzed descriptively.

resultsThe total number of interventions due to PAD had decreased in 2020, but not significantly during the pandemic period (

conclusionThe COVID-19 pandemic had an impact on the in-patient care of PAD patients in terms of disease stage severity and complexity. However, the amputation rate was not affected.
