Clinical characteristics of COVID-19 hospitalized patients associated with mortality: A cohort study in Spain.
Article in Infectious medicine, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Background: The heterogeneity of patients with COVID-19 may explain the wide variation of mortality rate due to the population characteristics, presence of comorbidities and clinical manifestations. Methods: In this study, we analyzed 5342 patients' recordings and selected a cohort of 177 hospitalized patients with a poor prognosis at an early stage. We assessed during 6 months their symptomatology, coexisting health conditions, clinical measures and health assistance related to mortality. Multiple Cox proportional hazards models were built to identify the associated factors with mortality risk. Results: We observed that cough and kidney failure triplicate the mortality risk and both bilirubin levels and oncologic condition are shown as the most associated with the demise, increasing in four and ten times the risk, respectively. Other clinical characteristics such as fever, diabetes mellitus, breathing frequency, neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio, oxygen saturation, and troponin levels, were also related to mortality risk of in-hospital death. Conclusions: The present study shows that some symptomatology, comorbidities and clinical measures could be the target of prevention tools to improve survival rates.
