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: Hyperglycemia and diabetes have been identified as risk factors for severe COVID-19 and death, with a high rate of reported de novo diabetes. We evaluated their incidence and relationship with adverse outcomes in critically ill COVID-19 patients. Methods: Prospective single-center longitudinal cohort study in adults hospitalized in intensive care units for confirmed COVID-19. ROC curves for serum glucose and glycated hemoglobin were plotted in relation to 60-day mortality. A Cox proportional hazards model was used to assess the association of diabetes and de novo diabetes with 60-day mortality. Results: 547 patients were included, with a mean age of 59.8 years; 133 (24.3%) had a history of diabetes, and 67 (12.2%) had de novo diabetes. At 60 days, 317 (57.9%) had died. For mortality, the AUC for glucose at admission was 0.55 (95% CI: 0.48 - 0.62) and 0.51 (95% CI: 0.41 - 0.62) for glycated hemoglobin. In the Cox model, diabetes had an HR of 0.888 (95% CI: 0.695 - 1.135, p: 0.344), history of DM had an HR of 0.881 (95% CI: 0.668 - 1.163, p: 0.371), and de novo diabetes had an HR of 0.963 (95% CI: 0.672 - 1.378, p: 0.835). Conclusion: There was a high incidence of de novo diabetes in patients hospitalized in intensive care for COVID-19. Neither hyperglycemia, history of diabetes, nor de novo diabetes were associated with the development of complications or 60-day mortality.
