Baseline Accuracies of Forecasting COVID-19 Cases in Russian Regions on a Year in Retrospect Using Basic Statistical and Machine Learning Methods.
Article in Procedia computer science, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
The large amount of data accumulated so far on the dynamics of the COVID-19 outbreak has allowed assessing the accuracy of forecasting methods in retrospect. This work compares several basic time series analysis methods, including machine learning methods, for forecasting the number of confirmed cases for some days ahead. Year-long data for all regions of Russia has been used from the Yandex DataLens platform. As a result, accuracy estimates for these basic methods have been obtained for Russian regions and Russia as a whole, in dependence on the forecasting horizon. The best basic models for forecasting for 14 days are exponential smoothing and ARIMA, with an error of 11-19% by the MAPE metric for the latest part of the course of the epidemic. The accuracies obtained can be considered as baselines for more complex prospective models.
