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

The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a global pandemic taking the lives of millions. The virus itself not only invades and destroys the angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)-expressing cells of the lungs, kidneys, liver, etc. but also elicits a hyperinflammatory immune response, further damaging the tissue leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and death. Although vaccines, as a prime example of active immunotherapy, have clearly disrupted the transmission of virus and reduced mortality, hospitalization, and burden of disease, other avenues of immunotherapy are also being explored. One such approach would be to adoptively transfer modified/unmodified immune cells to the critically ill. Here, we compiled and summarized the immunopathogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 and the recent preclinical and clinical data on the potential of cell-based therapies in the fight against COVID-19.
