Covid 19 death analysis in Colombia.
Article in Revista Cuidarte. 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
Introduction: This article shows an analysis of the evolution up until date (May 4-2021), of official coronavirus cases statistics (CC) and the total number of deaths (TND) due to SARS-CoV-2 in Colombia. Additionally, said information is shown in correlation to other variables such as Case Fatality Rate (CFR), age range of persons, their typical reported co-morbidities and the cities where there has been highest concentration of cases. Materials and Methods: From March 16 2020 until today, information regarding the daily number of new confirmed cases (DNC) and daily confirmed deaths (DD) was registered in a database with the purpose of estimating the evolution of CC, TND and CFR. The age of deceased was also registered, as well as their gender, prior co-morbidities and city of death. The evolution of TND with the time of other countries were compared to that of Colombia. A mathematical equation that represents the epidemiological curve of TND evolution of different countries across time was defined. Results: In Colombia, the average age of people who die due to COVID-19 is of 69.5±14.7 years (median and mode of 71 and 80 years, respectively), and the virus is less lethal amongst a population under the age of 40. The greater part of deaths have taken place in people with prior co-morbidities and of the male gender. Conclusion: Most of the persons that have deceased are those of senior age, mainly with prior co-morbidities, and predominantly of male gender. Epidemiological peaks of COVID-19 are consistent with the rainy and winter seasons, and with the traditional epidemiological peaks of flu or influenza.
