Impact of acute TTE-evidenced cardiac dysfunction on in-hospital and outpatient mortality: A multicenter NYC COVID-19 registry study.
Article in PloS one, 2023. 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
backgroundCOVID-19 is associated with cardiac dysfunction. This study tested the relative prognostic role of left (LV), right and bi- (BiV) ventricular dysfunction on mortality in a large multicenter cohort of patients during and after acute COVID-19 hospitalization. METHODS/
resultsAll hospitalized COVID-19 patients who underwent clinically indicated transthoracic echocardiography within 30 days of admission at four NYC hospitals between March 2020 and January 2021 were studied. Images were re-analyzed by a central core lab blinded to clinical data. Nine hundred patients were studied (28% Hispanic, 16% African-American), and LV, RV and BiV dysfunction were observed in 50%, 38% and 17%, respectively. Within the overall cohort, 194 patients had TTEs prior to COVID-19 diagnosis, among whom LV, RV, BiV dysfunction prevalence increased following acute infection (p<0.001). Cardiac dysfunction was linked to biomarker-evidenced myocardial injury, with higher prevalence of troponin elevation in patients with LV (14%), RV (16%) and BiV (21%) dysfunction compared to those with normal BiV function (8%, all p<0.05). During in- and out-patient follow-up, 290 patients died (32%), among whom 230 died in the hospital and 60 post-discharge. Unadjusted mortality risk was greatest among patients with BiV (41%), followed by RV (39%) and LV dysfunction (37%), compared to patients without dysfunction (27%, all p<0.01). In multivariable analysis, any RV dysfunction, but not LV dysfunction, was independently associated with increased mortality risk (p<0.01).
conclusionsLV, RV and BiV function declines during acute COVID-19 infection with each contributing to increased in- and out-patient mortality risk. RV dysfunction independently increases mortality risk.
