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

Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19), caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), broke out in late 2019 to become a serious global threat to human health. In the absence of specific treatments for COVID-19, treatment options are being examined. Recently, the anti-SARS-CoV-2 activities of tetracyclines, macrolide antibiotics, and ivermectin (IVM), have attracted considerable attention for their potential as a single or multi-drug treatment regimen. Moreover, tetracyclines, macrolide antibiotics, and IVM possess anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects to reduce the production of cytokines. COVID-19 is characterized by early exponential viral replication, cytokine storm-associated organ damage, including acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS) and thrombosis. Considering anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory effects of the aforementioned drugs and corticosteroids, early treatment with doxycycline, azithromycin, IVM, and corticosteroids is thought to be the most promising option for combating COVID-19-induced ARDS.
