Medicolegal autopsy analysis during Covid-19 pandemic in India.
Article in Bioinformation, 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
Medicolegal autopsy analysis is an integral part of a forensic investigation. Therefore, it is of interest to document the impact of COVID-19 on autopsy analysis. Hence, a total of 1,569 medicolegal autopsies were analysed. Data shows only 6.37% autopsy were conducted during lockdown while it is 93.63% in the unlock phase, indicating significant disruption in forensic services. The pandemic significantly altered the pattern and volume of medicolegal autopsies, with reduced cases during lockdown and a surge post-lockdown, particularly from respiratory, cardiac, suicidal and trauma-related deaths. Shifts in age distribution and operational delays highlight the broader impact on forensic services, underscoring the need for adaptable protocols and integrated public health responses during emergencies.
