Impact of monocyte-related modulators and kidney function on mortality in hospitalized patients with COVID-19.
Article in Scandinavian journal of immunology, 2022. 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
Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at high risk of severe complications from COVID-19 and functional monocyte disturbances have been implicated to play a role. Our objective was to analyse the association between kidney function and monocyte modulatory factors, with risk of mortality in patients with COVID-19. Hospitalized patients with COVID-19 (n = 110) were included and in-hospital mortality was analysed with unadjusted and adjusted multiple logistic regression analysis. Plasma levels of monocyte chemoattractant factors (MIP-1α, MCP-1, IL-6) and a monocyte immune modulator (sCD14) were analysed and correlated to kidney function and risk of mortality. Monocyte modulatory factors were also determined in CKD patients without infection (disease controls) and in healthy subjects. Patients who died in hospital were more often in CKD stages 3-5, with lower estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and had significantly higher MIP-1α and IL-6 levels than survivors. In multiple regression analyses adjusted for age, sex and eGFR, both high MCP-1 and high MIP-1α were significantly associated with risk of in-hospital mortality. Apart from impaired kidney function, also the concentrations of MCP-1 and MIP-1α add important prognostic information in hospitalized patients with COVID-19. These data provide an increased understanding of the impact of monocyte modulators in patients with COVID-19 and normal or impaired kidney function, and warrant consideration in the pursuit of new effective therapies.
