Vascular Inflammation in Lungs of Patients with Fatal Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) Infection: Possible role for the NLRP3 inflammasome.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Hyperinflammation is a key event that occurs with SARS-CoV-2 infection. In the lung, hyperinflammation leads to structural damage to tissue. To date, numerous lung histological studies have shown extensive alveolar damage, but there is scarce documentation of vascular inflammation in postmortem lung tissue. Here we document histopathological features and monitor the NLRP3 inflammasome in fatal cases of disease caused by SARS Cov2 (COVID-19). We posit that inflammasome formation along the vessel wall is a characteristic of lung inflammation that accompanies COVID-19 and that it is a probable candidate that drives amplification of inflammation post infection.
