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
Objective: We aimed to analyze clinical, radiological, and laboratory differences between vaccinated and unvaccinated patients admitted to hospital due to coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) pneumonia. Methods: Patients hospitalized in the COVID-19 clinic between February 2022 and August 2022 were included in the study. Demographic, clinical features, and treatment results. Furthermore, the COVID-19 vaccination status of the cases was recorded. The cases were divided into two groups as those with and without COVID vaccination and compared. Results: A total of 215 patients were included in our study, and the patients were divided into 2 groups according to their vaccination status: those who were unvaccinated against COVID-19 (n=100) and those who vaccinated COVID-19 (n=115). The presence of comorbid chronic diseases and cancer was lower in the unvaccinated group. The duration of hospitalization was longer in the unvaccinated group than in the vaccinated group (9.6 and 7.1 days, respectively) (p<0.001). While there was no difference between the two groups in terms of the radiological involvement pattern, the number of involved segments was significantly higher in the unvaccinated group (p<0.05). The number of patients who received high-dose glucocorticoid therapy in the unvaccinated group was higher (28 cases vs. 11 cases; p<0.001). There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in terms of transfer of patients to the intensive care unit (p>0.05). 11.3% (13/115) of the patients in the vaccinated group died, whereas 14% (14/100) died in the unvaccinated group. Conclusions: The vaccinated cases who were infected with COVID-19 had a shorter duration of hospitalization and lower severity of radiological involvement. The requirement for pulse steroids was also less compared with unvaccinated individuals. Despite having chronic diseases and cancer, which is considered to have a significant effect on mortality in COVID-19 patients. In addition, although the vaccinated group was older, they had mortality rates similar to those of unvaccinated subjects.
