1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

A significant proportion of COVID-19 patients develop long-term complications, particularly cardiovascular and neurological issues. Even though risk factors for developing complications after COVID-19 have been identified, a biomarker to predict these complications could enable personalized healthcare and potentially reduce the disease burden. Easily measurable in the blood, the long noncoding RNA LEF1-AS1 has recently been associated with in-hospital mortality following SARS-CoV - 2 infection and holds potential as a biomarker for disease severity in COVID-19 patients. Consequently, we examined LEF1-AS1's ability to predict cardiovascular and neurological complications after COVID-19. LEF1-AS1 has been measured in the blood by quantitative PCR in 104 primo-infected participants from the Predi-COVID cohort within 3 days post clinical PCR-confirmed COVID-19 diagnosis. Among them, 35 participants (34 %) reported at least one persistent cardiovascular symptom and at least one persistent neurological or ocular symptom in a self-administered questionnaire 12 months after COVID-19 diagnosis. Blood levels of LEF1-AS1 at baseline in these patients were lower (
