Racial Disparities in Pulse Oximetry, in COVID-19 and ICU Settings.
Article in Critical care explorations, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
OBJECTIVES
backgroundThis study aimed to assess the impact of race on pulse oximetry reliability, taking into account Spo
designRetrospective cohort study covering admissions from January 2020 to April 2024.
settingNational COVID Cohort Collaborative (N3C) database, consisting of electronic health records from 80 U.S. institutions. PATIENTS/SUBJECTS: Patients were selected from the N3C database based on the availability of data on self-identified race and both pulse oximetry estimated Spo
interventionsNone. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN
resultsThe agreement between Spo
conclusionsRace significantly impacts pulse oximetry reliability. Not only Black and Hispanic or Latino patients were at higher risk for hidden hypoxemia, but also those admitted with a COVID-19 diagnosis. Future in-depth explorations into the underlying causes and potential solutions are needed.
