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

Background: COVID-19 has subacute as well as long-term effects defined as long COVID on multiple organ systems. Emerging literature suggests long-term effects of COVID-19 on the autonomic nervous system in survivors, the mechanistic basis of which is currently not delineated. Purpose: The study aimed to assess the cardiovascular autonomic functions in mild COVID-19 survivors and compare them with age- and sex-matched healthy controls. Methods: We recruited 34 young adult mild COVID-19 survivors. Autonomic function was assessed by cardiovascular autonomic reactivity tests at least 1 month after clinical recovery from acute COVID-19 infection. The responses were compared with those of 34 age- and sex-matched pre-COVID era healthy controls. Results: Mild COVID-19 survivors had significantly lower Valsalva ratio (1.578 ± 0.2747 vs 1.773 ± 0.3459; Conclusion: Young adult mild COVID-19 survivors show lower cardiovagal and cardiovascular adrenergic responses to baroreflex-dependent autonomic reactivity as medium- to long-term autonomic sequelae. They have an intact non-baroreflex-dependent autonomic reactivity.
