Article in World journal of clinical cases, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
backgroundThe onset symptoms of people infected by
aimTo better understand the two diseases and then make an early diagnosis and treatment.
methodsSix patients from two institutions confirmed as psittacosis by high-throughput genetic testing and 31 patients confirmed as COVID-19 were retrospectively included. The epidemiology, clinical characteristics, laboratory tests and computed tomography (CT) imaging features were collected and compared between the two groups. The follow-up CT imaging findings of patients with psittacosis were also investigated.
resultsThe white blood cell count (WBC), neutrophil count and calcium were more likely to be decreased in patients with COVID-19 but were increased in patients with psittacosis (all
conclusionPsittacosis has the potential for human-to-human transmission. Patients with psittacosis present increased WBC count and neutrophil count and have specific CT imaging findings, including unilateral distribution, less involvement of lung lobes and pleural effusions, which might help us to differentiate it from COVID-19.
