Effect of temperature and humidity on coronavirus infection in Pakistan.
Article in Gene reports, 2022. 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
Ongoing Coronavirus epidemic (COVID-19) identified first in Wuhan, China posed huge impact on public health and economy around the globe. Both cough and sneeze based droplets or aerosols encapsulated COVID-19 particles are responsible for airborne transmission of this virus and caused an unexpected escalation and high mortality worldwide. Current study intends to investigate the correlation of COVID-19 epidemic with meteorological parameters, particularly temperature and humidity. A data set of Epidemiological data of COVID-19 for highly infected provinces of Pakistan was collected from the official website of (https://www.covid.gov.pk/) and weather data was collected from (https://www.timeanddate.com/) during the time period of 1st March to 30th September 2020. The GrapPad prism 5 Software was used to calculate the mean and standard error of mean (SEM). In the current study the incident of daily covid cases is recorded higher in the month of June while the less number of case were reported in the month of May as compared to the other months (April, May, June, July, September and August) in the four province of Pakistan. We also find out that the incident of Covid19 were high at higher temperature (like the average temperature in the month of June 37 °C) while less cases were reported in May the average temperature was 29.5 °C. Furthermore the incident of covid cases were less reported at low humidity while more intendant with high humidity. Pearson's (r) determine the strength of the relationship between the variables. Pearson's correlation coefficient test employed for data analysis revealed that temperature average (TA) and average humidity is not a significant correlated with COVID-19 pandemic. The results obtained from the current analysis for selected parameters indirect correlation of COVID-19 transmission with temperature variation, and humidity. In the present study association of parameters is not correlated with COVID-19 pandemic, suggested need of more strict actions and control measures for highly populated cities. These findings will be helpful for health regulatory authorities and policy makers to take specific measures to combat COVID-19 epidemic in Pakistan.
