Inpatient treatment modalities of coronavirus disease 2019 in the Egyptian population: A bi-center retrospective observational study.
Article in International journal of critical illness and injury science. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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: Many protocols for the treatment of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have been published. In addition to an abundance of studies and meta-analyses on the treatment of COVID-19, different medications used in the intensive care unit will have a significant impact on mortality. The study attempted to highlight, compare, and quantify the impact on outcomes. Methods: Data were collected from subjects' files, encompassing all physiological parameters, hematological profiles, and available laboratory results. In addition, all treatment modalities administered to the subjects were documented in medical files. Survival analysis was conducted using Kaplan-Meier curves and Cox proportional hazards. Results: The study included 120 subjects with confirmed COVID-19. Subjects treated with systemic corticosteroids (hazard Ratio [HR 0.45, 95% Confidence Interval [CI] 0.01-1.32; Conclusions: The early use of NIV is associated with decreased mortality compared to late use. Corticosteroids demonstrate a mortality-reducing effect. In addition, early administration of tocilizumab is associated with decreased mortality compared to late use.
