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

COVID-19 pandemic has proven to be a dramatic challenge, introducing huge clinical differences that demand extensive investigations. Severe and critical patients may present coagulopathies and microthrombi, which results in varied complications, or acute respiratory distress syndrome that leads to fatality. Although the lung to be the major site of clinical manifestations, COVID-19 has shown extrapulmonary manifestations, especially on the heart and kidney, directly linked to worse disease outcomes. According to the fast-moving of clinical description and scientific publications, the injuries in multiple organs and systemic inflammation appear to be caused by a deregulated immune response, and the NLRP3 inflammasome could be a relevant influencer in this imbalance. However, until now, the precise drivers of the pathophysiology of these injuries remain unknown. In this review, we discuss how inflammasome seems to be directly involved in the clinical profile of patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 and shed light on the mechanisms that lead to fatality.
