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

Although the main vital organ affected by SARS CoV-2 is the lung, more than 20% of hospitalized patients show heart injury, however, the underlying mechanisms are still actively investigated. Inflammation or myocardial ischemia are now well-established pathogenic factors. Direct cardiac damage by the virus is likely and might account for some aspects of cardiac disease in COVID-19 patients. However, precise knowledge on mechanisms of virus entry and progression in host cells and notably in cardiac cells is necessary in order to define the broad spectrum of pathogenicity of SARS-Cov-2 on myocardium and to identify specific therapeutic targets. This review will focus on the intracellular trafficking machinery, the Achilles heel of host cells, which can be used by the virus to infect cells of the cardiovascular system.
