Impact of COVID-19 on the Clinical Characteristics and Outcomes of Patients with Acute Leukaemia: An academic centre experience.
Article in Sultan Qaboos University medical journal, 2024. 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
Objectives: This study aimed to identify the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the frequency, clinical characteristics and outcomes of patients with acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL). Methods: This retrospective cohort study included all patients treated at Sultan Qaboos University Hospital in Muscat, Oman with AML or ALL from January 2017 to December 2021. Data were obtained from the electronic medical record, and patients diagnosed before the start of the COVID-19 pandemic were compared with those diagnosed during the pandemic using appropriate statistical tests. Results: A total of 151 patients with ALL (n = 58) and AML (n = 93) were included, of whom 78 were diagnosed before the COVID-19 pandemic and 73 during the pandemic. The rate of acute leukaemia increased during the pandemic ( Conclusion: Except for an increased rate of acute leukaemia and a lower platelet count, the COVID-19 pandemic did not impact the presentation and outcomes of acute leukaemia.
