Assessing the impact of vaccines on COVID-19 efficacy in survival rates: a survival analysis approach for clinical decision support.
Article in Frontiers in public health, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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: The global COVID-19 pandemic, caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus, has presented significant challenges to healthcare systems worldwide. Objective: This study, based on an analysis of a cohort from the Public Health System of Andalusia (Spain), aims to evaluate how vaccination affects case-fatality rate in patients hospitalized due to COVID-19 infection in Andalusia. Methods: The cohort consists of 37,274 individuals after applying the inclusion criteria. We conducted survival analyses employing the Cox proportional hazards models and generated adjusted survival curves to examine the outcomes. The analyses were performed from three perspectives: vaccinated vs. unvaccinated patients, vaccinated and unvaccinated patients grouped by age, and stratified by vaccination status. Results: Results indicate a substantial correlation between vaccination and a 20% reduction in the risk of case-fatality. Age-specific effects reveal varying degrees of protection across different age groups. Conclusion: These findings emphasize the pivotal role of vaccination status in COVID-19 risk assessment, supporting the development of a clinical decision support system for accurate predictions and optimizing healthcare management at admission.
