Outcomes in COVID-19 Patients with Pneumonia Treated with High-Flow Oxygen Therapy and Baricitinib-Retrospective Single-Center Study.
Article in Life (Basel, Switzerland), 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
backgroundThe aim of the study was to assess the effect of baricitinib on 28-day all-cause mortality and the progression of respiratory failure in patients needing transfer to the intensive care unit (ICU) with COVID-19 pneumonia treated with high-flow oxygen therapy.
methodsThis retrospective study included hospitalized patients with COVID-19 pneumonia treated with high-flow oxygen non-invasive ventilation receiving standard of care (SOC) or SOC in addition to baricitinib. Data on patients' characteristics, pro-inflammatory markers, D dimer, and National Early Warning Score 2 (NEWS2) values were collected and compared between groups. The primary endpoint was 28-day all-cause in-hospital mortality and the secondary outcome was transfer to the ICU.
resultsThe study included 125 patients. The primary outcome was observed in 44.8% of them: 27% in the baricitinib group vs. 62% in the SOC group,
conclusionTreatment with baricitinib in addition to SOC was associated with reduced mortality and a lower prevalence of transfer to the ICU in hospitalized patients with COVID-19 pneumonia treated with high-flow oxygen non-invasive therapy.
