Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 Variant B.1.575.2, Containing the E484K Mutation in the Spike Protein, in Pamplona, Spain, May to June 2021.
Article in Journal of clinical microbiology, 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
With the emergence of new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants and the acquisition of novel mutations in existing lineages, the need to implement methods capable of monitoring viral dynamics arises. We report the emergence and spread of a new SARS-CoV-2 variant within the B.1.575 lineage, containing the E484K mutation in the spike protein (named B.1.575.2), in a region in northern Spain in May and June 2021. SARS-CoV-2-positive samples with cycle threshold values of ≤30 were selected to screen for presumptive variants using the TaqPath coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) reverse transcription (RT)-PCR kit and the TaqMan SARS-CoV-2 mutation panel. Confirmation of variants was performed by whole-genome sequencing. Of the 200 samples belonging to the B.1.575 lineage, 194 (97%) corresponded to the B.1.575.2 sublineage, which was related to the presence of the E484K mutation. Of 197 cases registered in the Global Initiative on Sharing Avian Influenza Data (GISAID) EpiCoV database as lineage B.1.575.2, 194 (99.5%) were identified in Pamplona, Spain. This report emphasizes the importance of complementing surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 with sequencing for the rapid control of emerging viral variants.
