Functional and radiological changes in ICU survivors with COVID-19 at 1-year follow-up from the OUTSTRIP COVID-19 study.
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
Objective: We aimed to determine the radiological changes on computed tomography (CT) scans of the chest and pulmonary function abnormalities at a 1-year follow-up in intensive care unit (ICU) survivors with severe COVID-19. Design: A 2-year prospective cohort study with an enrollment of 204 patients within 3 months after their discharge from the ICU at Hamad General Hospital, the tertiary care center in Qatar. Main Results: The mean age of our cohort was 48.7 ± 8.6 years. CT chest was performed on a total of 135 patients at a 1-year follow-up, out of which 43 patients had a CT chest during hospital admission with COVID-19. Abnormal CT chest findings were seen in 118 (87.4%) patients at 1 year. The mean CT severity score significantly improved at 1 year (8.1 ± 6.8 vs. 19.4 ± 3.6, Conclusion: Patients recovering from severe COVID-19 have significant improvement but persistent radiological changes at a 1-year follow-up that correlate with several physiological parameters, but these findings are limited by the absence of pre-COVID-19 baseline imaging.
