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

backgroundKidney transplant recipients (KTR) are at risk of severe coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) disease and mortality after severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. We predicted that hospitalization for COVID-19 and subsequent admission to the intensive care unit (ICU) would yield worse outcomes in KTRs.

aimTo investigate outcomes among KTRs hospitalized at our high-volume transplant center either on the general hospital floor or the ICU.

methodsWe retrospectively describe all adult KTRs who were hospitalized at our center with their first SARS-CoV-2 infection between 04/2020 and 04/2022 and had at least 12 months follow-up (unless they experienced graft failure or death). The cohort was stratified by ICU admission. Outcomes of interest included risk factors for ICU admission and mortality, length of stay (LOS), respiratory symptoms at admission, all-cause graft failure at the last follow-up, and death related to COVID-19.

results96 KTRs were hospitalized for SARS-COV-2 infection. 21 (22%) required ICU admission. The ICU group had longer hospital LOS (21.8

conclusionICU admission conferred an increased risk of mortality, graft failure, and longer LOS. One-fifth of those hospitalized died of COVID-19, reflecting the impact of COVID-19-related morbidity and mortality among KTRs.
