1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

This is a multicentre prospective cohort including critically ill children and adolescents, with confirmed critical disease related to SARS-CoV-2, admitted to three tertiary paediatric intensive care units in the Brazilian Amazon, between April 2020 and July 2022. 208 patients were included (median age was 3.5 years). The majority had malnutrition (62%) and comorbidities (60.6%). Mechanical ventilation support, cardiogenic shock and acute respiratory distress syndrome occurred in 47%, 30% and 34.1% of patients, respectively. There were 37 (18%) deaths. A poor outcome of severe COVID-19 and multisystem inflammatory syndrome in children was observed in children and adolescents from the Brazilian Amazon.
