Hospital-based COVID-19 registry: Design and implementation. Colombian experience.
Article in MethodsX, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Registries are essential to providing valuable clinical and epidemiological decisions. Designing a registry is challenging because it is time-consuming and resource-intensive, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Here, we described our experience with the rationale, design, and implementation of a hospital-based COVID-19 registry in Cali, Colombia. We designed and implemented a hospital-based registry over a dynamic web-based structure to record all sociodemographic, clinical, and laboratory tests, imaging, treatment, and outcomes of SARS-CoV-2. We included 4458 confirmed COVID-19 cases of 18 years and older from March 2020 to March 2021. The median age was 48 years. The most frequent comorbidities were hypertension, obesity, and diabetes. The ICU admission rate was 19%, and the in-hospital mortality rate was 20%. The implemented strategies provided rapid and reliable information collection for the registry of emerging studies from the different clinical areas. Regular data quality and feedback are essential to ensure the reliability of the information. The integration of automatic data extraction reduces time consumption in information gathering and resources.
