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

A recent study showed that patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) have gastrointestinal symptoms and intestinal flora dysbiosis. Yeast probiotics shape the gut microbiome and improve immune homeostasis. In this study, an oral candidate of yeast-derived spike protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) and fusion peptide displayed on the surface of the yeast cell wall was generated. The toxicity and immune efficacy of oral administration were further performed in Institute of Cancer Research (ICR) mice. No significant difference in body weights, viscera index, and other side effects were detected in the oral-treated group. The detectable RBD-specific immunoglobulin G (IgG) and immunoglobulin A (IgA) of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and more complex microbiota were detected from oral administration mice compared with those of the control group. Interestingly, the recombinant yeast was identified in female fetal of the high-dose group. These results revealed that the displaying yeast could fulfill the agent-driven immunoregulation and gut microbiome reconstitution. The findings will shed light on new dimensions against SARS-CoV-2 infection with the synergistic oral agents as promising non-invasive immunization and restoring gut flora.
