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

objectiveto analyze the symptoms of long COVID in patients treated in Primary Health Care, considering gender, age, and vaccination status.

methodthis is a cross-sectional and analytical study conducted with a sample of 350 patients with long COVID treated in Primary Health Care services. Data were collected through the analysis of medical records and analyzed using the Poisson regression model.

resultsolder adults had an 88% higher prevalence of shortness of breath as a symptom of long COVID; females had a 13.5 times higher prevalence of hair loss; and unvaccinated individuals had a 3.64 times higher prevalence of reporting chest pain.

conclusionidentifying the most prevalent symptoms of long COVID, taking into account age group, gender, and vaccination status, can contribute to clinical evaluation and the development of protocols to guide the appropriate management of these individuals.
