Liver and Renal Injury with Remdesivir Treatment in SARS-CoV-2 Patients.
Article in Pakistan journal of medical sciences. 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
Objective: To determine the effect of Remdesivir on liver enzymes and renal functions in SARS-CoV-2 patients. Methods: This prospective cohort study was conducted at Dr. Ruth KM Pfau, Civil Hospital Karachi between 1 Result: This study included 85 patients, out of which 55 (64.7%) were males and 30 (35.3%) were females. Out of 85 patients, Remdesivir was stopped in 3 (3.5%) patients. Among these three patients Remdesivir was stopped in one patient on day three because of decrease in CrCl to <30 ml/min. His CrCl improved after stopping Remdesivir. In the remaining two patients, Remdesivir was stopped due to increase in ALT to greater than 10 times from normal values on day three. Similarly, in these two patients the ALT improved after stopping Remdesivir. Conclusion: Only three patients developed adverse effects resulting in stopping of Remdesivir, however these were reversible on stopping the drug. Therefore, Remdesivir is a relatively safe drug and well tolerated in SARS-CoV-2 patients.
