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
backgroundSARS-CoV-2 coinfection with other viral and bacterial pathogens and their interactions are increasingly recognized in the literature as potential determinants of COVID-19 phenotypes. The aim of this study was to determine infection induced, host transcriptomic overlap between SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens. MATERIALS AND
methodsSARS-CoV-2 infection induced gene expression data were used for gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA) via the Enrichr platform. GSEA compared the extracted signature to VirusMINT, Virus and Microbe perturbations from Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) in order to detect overlap with other pathogen induced host gene signatures. For all analyses, a false discovery rate (FDR) <0.05 was considered statistically significant.
resultsGSEA via Enrichr revealed several significantly enriched sub-signatures associated with HSV1, EBV, HIV1, IAV, RSV, P.Aeruginosa, Staph. Aureus and Strep. Pneumoniae infections, among other pathogens (FDR < 0.05). These signatures were detected in at least 6 infection-induced transcriptomic studies from GEO and involved both bronchial epithelial and peripheral blood immune cells. DISCUSSION: SARS-CoV-2 infection may function synergistically with other viral and bacterial pathogens at the transcriptomic level. Notably, several meta-analyses of COVID-19 cohorts have furthermore corroborated viral and bacterial pathogens reported herein as coinfections with SARS-CoV-2. The identification of common, perturbed gene networks outlines a common host targetome for these pathogens, and furthermore provides candidates for biomarker discovery and drug design.
