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 novel coronavirus (2019-nCoV/SARS-CoV-2) causes respiratory symptoms including a substantial pulmonary dysfunction with worsening arterial hypoxemia (low blood oxygenation), eventually leading to acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS). The impact of the viral infection on blood oxygenation and other elements of oxygen homeostasis, such as oxygen sensing and respiratory mitochondrial mechanisms, are not well understood. As a step toward understanding these mechanisms in the context of COVID-19, recent experiments revealed contradictory data on the impact of COVID-19 infection on red blood cells (RBCs) oxygenation parameters. However, structural protein damage and membrane lipid remodeling in RBCs from COVID-19 patients that may impact RBC function have been reported. Moreover, COVID-19 infection could potentially disrupt one, if not all, of the other major pathways of homeostasis. Understanding the nature of the crosstalk among normal homeostatic pathways; oxygen carrying, oxygen sensing (i.e., hypoxia inducible factor, HIF) proteins, and the mitochondrial respiratory machinery may provide a target for therapeutic interventions.
