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

SARS-CoV-2 is causative of pandemic COVID-19. There is a sequence similarity between SARS-CoV-2 and SARS-CoV; however, SARS-CoV-2 RBDs (receptor-binding domain) binds 20-fold strongly with human angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (hACE2) than SARS-CoV. The study aims to investigate protein-protein interactions (PPI) of hACE2 with SARS-CoV-2 RBD between wild and variants to detect the most influential interaction. Variants of hACE2 were retrieved from NCBI and subjected to determine the most pathogenic nsSNPs. Probability of PPIs determines the binding affinity of hACE2 genetic variants with RBD was investigated. Composition variations at the hACE2 and RBD were processed for PatchDock and refined by FireDock for the PPIs. Twelve nsSNPs were identified as the top pathogenic from SNPs (
