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

Evidence on hospitalised COVID-19 patients during the Omicron BA.5 wave from Eastern European, vaccine-heterogeneous cohorts remains limited. We conducted a retrospective single-centre cohort study of 395 consecutive adults admitted with laboratory-confirmed COVID-19 to a tertiary infectious-diseases unit in western Romania between 1 July and 31 October 2022. Median age was 72 years (IQR 65-81); 33.2% were unvaccinated, 42.8% had documented prior SARS-CoV-2 infection, and 41.3% were obese. Multivariable logistic regression identified independent predictors of in-hospital mortality and post-acute symptom burden. In-hospital mortality was 15.7% (62/395). Vaccination was independently associated with lower mortality (adjusted odds ratio [aOR] 0.55, 95% CI 0.30-0.99;
