Serum ferritin as a predictive marker of pulmonary fibrosis in post-COVID-19.
Article in Qatar medical journal, 2025. 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
Background: Pulmonary fibrosis is characterized by excessive matrix formation, which destroys typical lung architecture and increases the chances of comorbidity. It is essential to look into potential serum indicators for the early identification of individuals who may develop such severe fibrotic consequences since there is currently no specific marker for the early diagnosis of post-COVID-19 pulmonary fibrosis. The study is aimed at examining potential serum markers that could be used for early detection of pulmonary fibrosis in patients with COVID-19. Methods: It is a cross-sectional retrospective observational study that included male ( Results: The descriptive analysis revealed no significant correlation between platelet count ( Conclusions: As there was a significant positive correlation between serum ferritin level and CT-SS, the serum ferritin level could be considered as a simple and cost-effective biomarker for predicting the development of lung fibrosis in long COVID-19 conditions after controlling the confounders.
