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

Delayed recognition of severe disease in hospitalized patients remains a major challenge and contributes to increased morbidity and mortality. Therefore, it is of interest to evaluate the correlation of serum ferritin, C-reactive protein (CRP) and D-dimer levels with disease severity in hospitalized patients. Hence, a hospital-based cross-sectional study was conducted on 100 adult patients and biomarker levels were measured using standard laboratory methods. The results showed a significant increase in serum ferritin, CRP and D-dimer levels with increasing disease severity (p < 0.001). A strong positive correlation was observed between these biomarkers and disease severity, with D-dimer showing the highest correlation and elevated levels were significantly associated with ICU admission and mortality. Thus, combined assessment of ferritin, CRP and D-dimer is a simple and reliable approach for early risk stratification and prognostication in hospitalized patients.
