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: Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has multiple organ system involvement but the association of organ system involvement with disease prognosis has not been reported. We study the association of organ systems involved with in-hospital mortality and hospital length of stay (LOS) in COVID-19. Methods: Retrospective study of 808 consecutive patients with confirmed-laboratory diagnosis of COVID-19 in a New York hospital from March 1-May 15, 2020. Results: Increased number of organs systems involved was associated with increased odds for in-hospital mortality (odds ratio [OR]: 1.36, 95% confidence interval [CI]: 1.11-1.66, Conclusion: Multiple organ systems involvement in COVID-19 is associated with worse prognosis. Clinical/laboratory values corresponding to each organ system may be used as prognostic tools in clinical settings to tailor treatments for COVID-19 patients.
