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

INTRODUCTION AND

objectiveAt least one in ten patients infected with COVID develop cardiovascular complications during hospitalization, increasing the number of deaths from this cause. However, the determinants of risk are not clearly elucidated. This study aims to determine whether there is a relationship between in-hospital cardiac complications and cardiovascular history and hospital evolution.

methodsProspective cohort study of 373 patients with a positive diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 admitted to an Intensive Care Unit between March and October 2021.

resultsMedian age was 69 (IQR: 57-77), 29.2 % of patients presented cardiovascular complications: 21.2 % electrical, 5.9 % acute coronary syndrome and 1.9 % pulmonary thromboembolism. Age RR: 1.02 (95 % CI: 1.00-1.04; p = 0.020) and history of ischemic heart disease RR: 2.23 (95 % CI: 1.27-3.92; p = 0.005) were identified as independent predictors of in-hospital cardiac complications.

conclusionsAge and history of ischemic heart disease were identified as independent predictor variables of cardiovascular complications in patients admitted with severe COVID-19 involvement; being significantly associated with lower survival.
