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
BACKGROUND AND
aimThe aim of this study is to assess if people who chose to receive the preventive Natural Bioenergetics (NB) COVID-19 treatment would experience safely a strong reduction in frequency and severity of COVID-19 major symptoms (fever, cough, and shortness of breath) compared to the general population. Experimental procedure: The preventive NB COVID-19 treatment is a double acupuncture meridian-based procedure that primes the immune system using acupuncture points and specific substances and sounds on precise body locations. Four hundred and thirty-nine people from seven countries (Canada, USA, Mexico, UK, France, Israel, and Belgium) voluntarily received the non-invasive preventive NB treatment. Data used for this study have been gathered between April 2020 and December 2020. The severity of cases experienced by the general population was statistically compared with those of the 42 infected people of this study. RESULTS AND
conclusionOur analysis suggests the population who chose to receive the preventive NB COVID-19 treatment experienced a strong reduction in frequency and severity of the three major symptoms of COVID-19 (p<0.01) compared to the general population. Nobody in that population needed hospitalization, including the elderly, which can be interpreted as a very significant clinical improvement. Most people did not report any side effects. Only small side effects were reported.
