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

Coronavirus Disease 2019 (or commonly called COVID-19) infections have been associated with numerous severe cardiovascular complications, including myocardial infarction, myocarditis, and arrhythmias, which pose significant risks to long-term cardiac health. Despite extensive research on COVID-19-related cardiovascular diseases, there remains a shortage of curated, annotated medical imaging datasets to support studies on the early detection or prediction of post-COVID cardiac complications. To address this gap, we introduce the 3C dataset (Cardiac-CT-COVID-19), a public benchmark database of cardiac computed tomography (CT) scans from 134 COVID-19-positive patients, including cases both with and without documented cardiovascular complications. All scans were annotated by two radiologists with expertise in cardiothoracic imaging, incorporating (1) pixel-level delineations of cardiac structures and pathological findings (e.g., myocardial scarring and pericardial effusion), and (2) a normalized severity grading scale for cardiovascular manifestations. The dataset also includes demographic and clinical metadata to support holistic analysis. The 3C dataset is the first to offer detailed, expert-validated annotations that link COVID-19 infection to specific cardiac abnormalities observed in CT scans. The database is expected to provide an excellent benchmark for researchers working on tasks such as automated detection, prediction, and characterization of diverse cardiovascular manifestations secondary to COVID-19.
