A data set from the meta-analysis of Katzenschlager et al. (2021). Specifically, this data set corresponds to the meta-analysis comparing creatine kinase (CK) levels of COVID-19 infected patients who died and those who survived. The unit of measurement for the CK levels is U/L. The rows in the data set correspond to the primary studies.
