Pressure injury prevalence and characteristics in patients with COVID-19 admitted to acute inpatient rehabilitation unit.

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 investigate the incidence and severity of pressure injuries among COVID-19 patients who required acute hospitalization and subsequent acute inpatient rehabilitation (AIR). Design: Data was collected retrospectively from medical charts of COVID-19 patients who were admitted to AIR during April 2020-April 2021. Setting: Acute Inpatient Rehabilitation at a single hospital in the greater New York metropolitan area. Participants: Subjects included COVID-19 patients ( Interventions: Not applicable. Main outcome measures: The incidence, location, and severity of pressure injuries in COVID-19 patients, as well as demographic and clinical characteristics of the acute hospitalization. Results: Among patients who developed pressure injuries, more patients received mechanical ventilation (59% vs. 33%, Conclusion: Pressure injuries were more common in COVID-19 patients who had longer lengths of stay, received mechanical ventilation or tracheostomy, during acute hospitalization. This supports the use of protocols to prioritize pressure offloading in this patient population.
