Increasing inpatient mortality of nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding during the COVID-19 pandemic: a nationwide retrospective cohort study.

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
Upper gastrointestinal bleeding results in significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare burden. This study aimed to evaluate inpatient outcomes of nonvariceal upper gastrointestinal bleeding (NVUGIB) during the year 2020 of the COVID-19 pandemic. The National Inpatient Sample databases were used to identify NVUGIB-related hospitalizations. Outcomes of interest for the year 2019 were compared to 2020 and included inpatient mortality, length of stay, mean inpatient cost, odds of getting esophagogastroduodenoscopy (EGD), mean time to EGD, early EGD (within 1 day of hospitalization), endoscopic intervention for hemostasis, and the odds of developing complications. NVUGIB-related hospitalizations increased by 8.1% in 2020. NVUGIB-related hospitalizations in 2020 were also associated with an 11.1% higher mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] = 1.11, confidence interval [CI] = 1.06-1.17,
