Alterations in hematologic, coagulation, and inflammatory markers based on fever status in hospitalized COVID-19 patients: A retrospective study.

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: Laboratory markers like lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, elevated D-dimer, and C-reactive protein (CRP) predict worse outcomes in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). However, a comprehensive analysis of hematologic and coagulation parameter alterations based on fever status is lacking. Methods: This retrospective study analyzed 300 COVID-19 patients hospitalized from March to December 2020. Demographic, clinical, and laboratory data were extracted from electronic medical records. Patients were stratified into fever (n = 200) and no fever (n = 100) groups. Hematologic, coagulation, and inflammatory markers were compared between groups using appropriate statistical tests. Multivariate regression identified independent predictors of fever. Results: Fever was associated with leukocytosis, neutrophilia, lymphopenia, thrombocytopenia, elevated CRP, D-dimer, procalcitonin, interleukin-6, neutrophil to lymphocyte ratio (NLR), and ferritin compared to no fever (all Conclusions: Marked alterations in hematologic, coagulation, and inflammatory markers occur in COVID-19 based on fever. Routine laboratory parameters can facilitate diagnosis and risk stratification.
