[Factors associated with the risk of hospitalization and death related to SARS-CoV-2 infection.]
Article in Revista espanola de salud publica, 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
objectiveCOVID-19 has tried out global health causing high mortality. There are some risk factors that associate greater severity and mortality from COVID-19; but their individual impact is unknown yet. There are also no fixed criteria for hospital admission. For this reason, this study aimed to analyze the factors associated with the severity of COVID-19 and create predictive models for the risk of hospitalization and death due to COVID-19.
methodsA descriptive retrospective cohort study was made in Talavera de la Reina (Toledo, Spain). Data were collected through computerized records of Primary Care, Emergencies and Hospitalization. The sample consisted of 275 patients over eighteen years old diagnosed with COVID-19 in a centralized laboratory from March 1st to May 31st, 2020. Analysis was carried on using SPSS, creating two predictive models for the risk of hospitalization and death using linear regression.
resultsThe probability of hospitalization increased independently with polypharmacy (OR 1.086; CI95% 1.009-1.169), the Charlson index (OR 1.613; CI95% 1.158-2.247), the history of acute myocardial infarction (AMI) (OR 4.358; 95% CI 1.114-17.051) and the presence of COVID symptoms (OR 7.001; 95% CI 2.805-17.475). The probability of death was independently associated with age, increasing 8.1% (OD 1.081; 95% CI 1.054- 1.110) for each year of the patient.
conclusionsComorbidity, polypharmacy, history of AMI and the presence of COVID-19 symptoms predict the risk of hospitalization. The age of individuals predicts the risk of death. Detecting patients at high risk of hospitalization and death allows us to define the target population and define measures to implement.
