Clinical Characteristics and Analysis of Associated Risk Factors in Patients with Severe and Non-Severe COVID-19 Infection.
Article in Infection and drug resistance, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Objective: Our aim was to highlight the clinical characteristics and determine the risk factors associated with severe and non-severe COVID-19 infection. Study Method: A retrospective review was conducted on clinical data obtained from patients with COVID-19 infection, admitted to the emergency department between November 2022 and January 2023. Total of 1684 participants were categorized into severe (312 cases,18.53%) and non-severe (1,372 cases,81.47%) cohorts. Logistic regression was utilized for multivariate analysis, with a P-value less than 0.05 signifying a significant difference between the groups. Results: The study consisted of 952 males (56.53%) and 732 females (43.47%) participants. The age distribution ranged from 18 to 93 years in both cohorts. There were statistically significant differences between the clinical symptoms of the severe and non-severe cohorts (P < 0.05). According to the multivariate statistical analysis, patients with more pronounced clinical manifestations had significantly elevated values related to age(P < 0.05), diabetes(P < 0.01), hypertension(P < 0.01), C-reactive protein (CRP) (P < 0.05), and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) (P < 0.01) as compared to those presenting with milder symptoms. Conclusion: The primary clinical presentations in both the cohorts were mostly similar. Predominant factors contributing to the severity of COVID-19 infection were age, diabetes, hypertension, elevated CRP levels, and increased LDH.
