Associated pathogenesis of bladder cancer and SARS-CoV-2 infection: a treatment strategy.
Article in Virusdisease, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 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
Coronavirus disease 19 (Covid-19) is a pandemic that affects every human on Earth. Mortality rates are greater in people with both cancer and Covid-19. In comparison, patients with non-Muscle-Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) had reduced susceptibility to moderate Covid-19 mortality. The treatment and clinical management of NMIBC are consistent with BCG-mediated intravesical adjuvant therapy as a protective function against tumors. BCG vaccination exhibits a non-specific protective role against respiratory infections. This non-specific effect of BCG is partially mediated by innate immune memory due to epigenetic changes in innate and adaptive immune system cells induced by the microbe. This editorial suggests that regularly test repurposed drugs include anti-cancer drugs till the proper antiviral drugs or vaccines will be developed.
