COVID-19 Infection and Clinical Outcomes in Hospitalized Patients With Rheumatoid Arthritis: Insights From the National Inpatient Sample.
Article in Journal of community hospital internal medicine perspectives, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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: Coronavirus-19, primarily a respiratory virus, affects multiple organs and can lead to exacerbation of autoimmune or systemic conditions. Patients with autoimmune diseases, rheumatoid arthritis particularly, are susceptible to infection and complications from COVID-19. RA has become well-associated with COVID-19 infections, but large-scale studies evaluating outcomes among this vulnerable group are limited. Methods: For the retrospective analysis, we used the National Inpatient Sample database to compare COVID-19 patients with and without RA. A total of 1,050,040 adult hospitalizations were included in the study between January 1 to December 31, 2020: COVID-19 with RA ( Results: COVID-19 patients with RA had significantly increased in-hospital mortality compared to COVID-19 patients without RA (12.9% vs 11.1%, adjusted OR [aOR]: 1.2 [95% CI 1.1-1.3], Conclusions: Given limited large evidence regarding COVID-19 with respect to RA, future research should be focused on this topic to improve outcomes for this subset of patients.
