Drug-repurposing against COVID-19 by targeting a key signaling pathway: An in silico study.
Article in Medical hypotheses, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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
Currently, a plethora of information has been accumulated concerning COVID-19, including the transmission pathway of SARs-CoV-2. Thus, we retrieved targets associated with the development of COVID-19 via PubChem. A total of 517 targets were identified, and signaling pathways responded after infection of SARs-CoV-2 in humans constructed a bubble chart using RPackage. The bubble chart result suggested that the key signaling pathway against COVID-19 was the estrogen signaling pathway associated with AKT1, HSP90AB1, BCL2 targets. The three targets have the strongest affinity with three ligands-Akti-1/2, HSP990, S55746, respectively. In conclusion, this work provides three key elements to alleviate COVID-19 symptoms might be anti-inflammatory effects on SARs-CoV-2-infected lung cells.
