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

Background: The present study aimed to investigate the association between acute cardiac injury (ACI) and outcomes in hospitalized patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in Iran. Methods: The current cohort study enrolled all consecutive hospitalized patients with COVID-19 (≥ 18 y) who had serum high-sensitivity cardiac troponin-I (hs-cTnT) measurements on admission between March 2020 and March 2021. ACI was determined as hs-cTnT levels exceeding the 99th percentile of normal values. Data on demographics, comorbidities, clinical and laboratory characteristics, and outcomes were collected from Web-based electronic health records. Results: The study population consisted of 1413 hospitalized patients with COVID-19, of whom 319 patients (22.58%) presented with ACI. The patients with ACI had a significantly higher mortality rate than those without ACI (48.28% vs 15.63%; P<0.001) within a mean follow-up of 218.86 days from symptom onset. ACI on admission was independently associated with mortality (HR, 1.44; P=0.018). In multivariable logistic regression, age (OR, 1.034; P<0.001), preexisting cardiac disease (OR, 1.49; P=0.035), preexisting malignancy (OR, 2.01; P=0.030), oxygen saturation reduced to less than 90% (OR, 2.15; P<0.001), leukocytosis (OR, 1.45; P=0.043), lymphopenia (OR, 1.49; P=0.020), reduced estimated glomerular filtration rates (eGFRs) (OR, 0.99; P=0.008), and treatment with intravenous immunoglobulin during hospitalization (OR, 4.03; P=0.006) were independently associated with ACI development. Conclusion: ACI occurrence on admission was associated with long-term mortality in our hospitalized patients with COVID-19. The finding further underscores the significance of evaluating ACI occurrence on admission, particularly in individuals more prone to ACI, including older individuals and those with preexisting comorbidities, reduced oxygen saturation, and increased inflammatory responses.
