Risk HLA alleles in South America and potential new epitopes for SARS-CoV2.
Synthesis in Human immunology, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
HLA alleles are associated with the body's response to infection and the regulation of the immune system. HLA alleles have been reported to be involved in response to viral infections such as SARS-CoV2. Our study reviews the HLA alleles associated with protection or susceptibility to SARS-CoV2 and the prevalence of these HLA alleles in South America. Previous studies on HLA and SARS-CoV2 infection reported that HLA-A*02:02, HLA-B*15:03, and HLA-C*12:03 are protective; while HLA-A*25:01, HLA-B*46:01, and HLA-C*01:02 increase susceptibility. We identified that these alleles are not frequent in South America, confirmed that the spike protein is the most immunogenic protein of SARS-CoV2, and detected new immunogenic epitopes that bound to protective HLA alleles and to HLA alleles common in South America (binding score > 0.90). These could be used as vaccine targets.
