Implementation of the Abbott ID Now COVID-19 assay at a tertiary care center: a prospective pragmatic implementation study during the third wave of SARS-CoV-2 in Ontario.

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 Abbott ID Now COVID-19 assay is a point-of-care molecular diagnostic tool for the detection of SARS-CoV-2. We prospectively monitored implementation of the assay in a tertiary care hospital emergency department (ED) for the diagnosis of early symptomatic patients. A total of 269 paired nasopharyngeal swabs were tested in parallel with the ID Now and laboratory-based molecular methodologies, 191 of which met selection criteria for testing based on symptoms description and duration. Forty-six and 48 samples were positive for SARS-CoV-2 with the ID Now and reference molecular assays respectively. Percent positive and negative agreement were high (93.8% and 99.6% respectively), as were the sensitivity and specificity (93.8% and 99.5%). ID Now results were available 17.47 hours earlier than qRT-PCR. In symptomatic patients seen in ED within 7 to 10 days of symptoms onset, the ID Now COVID-19 assay allows for rapid and accurate detection of infection.
