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
Purpose: To compare the levels of cardiac troponin I (cTnI) and N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in apparently non-COVID-19 (COVID-19-) and post-COVID-19 (COVID-19+) persons with metabolic syndrome (MetS+) and without metabolic syndrome (MetS-). Methods: The descriptive correlational study was carried out in 275 inhabitants of the city of Trujillo in 2023. Cardiac markers were determined by time-resolved immunofluorescence. Results: It was determined that 58.2% of the participants presented COVID-19 and 46.5% presented a diagnosis of MetS according to the harmonized ATP III criteria. Levels of cTnI greater than 0.05 ng/mL were found in low percentages in the COVID-19-/MetS-, COVID-19-/MetS+, and COVID-19+/MetS- groups at 0.7% each, and in the COVID-19+/SM+ group, it was 0.4%. NT-proBNP concentrations higher than 125 pg/mL were found in 2.9% of participants, of which 1.1% were in the COVID-19+/MetS+ group, a slightly higher proportion compared to the other groups. Conclusion: The proportion of individuals with normal or elevated cTnI and NT-ProBNP levels does not differ significantly in both healthy individuals, with MetS only, and those with mild Post COVID-19 with or without MetS; however, longitudinal studies are required to detect possible myocardial events in either group for adequate treatment, especially in those with COVID-19+/MetS+.
