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

objectiveTo investigate the effect of sivelestat sodium on survival, oxygenation index, and serum markers for infection in critically ill patients with COVID-19-associated acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS).

methodsThis retrospectively study was performed among the critically ill patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS admitted in the intensive care unit (ICU) at Nanfang Hospital, Southern Medical University. We collected the clinical data of the patients on the first day of ICU admission and on the day of discharge and laboratory tests results of interleukin-6 (IL-6), C-reactive protein (CRP) and procalcitonin (PCT) and oxygenation index on days 1, 3 and 7 following ICU admission. Propensity-score matching was used to match the patients receiving sivelestat sodium to those without the treatment. Cox proportional hazards model and linear regression analysis were used to assess the association of sivelestat sodium treatment with in-hospital mortality and the length of hospital stay.

resultsA total of 199 patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS patients were included for data analysis. After propensity-score matching PSM, 35 patients receiving sivelestat sodium were matched to 70 patients without the treatment. Treatment with of sivelestat sodium was not associated with the reduction of in- hospital mortality (

conclusionSivelestat sodium treatment is not correlated with the reduction of mortality or length of hospital stay, but is associated with reduced serum IL-6 level in patients with COVID-19-associated ARDS.
