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

Thrombocytopenia is a possible problem in COVID-19. Hemorrhagic problem might be a result of thrombocytopenia in COVID-19. Due to the emergence of thrombocytopenia in COVID-19, the pathophysiology of thrombocytopenia in COVID-19 is currently a important topic in blood research. An important possible pathogenesis is the molecular mimicry. In variants of COVID-19, the change in spike might occur and the effect on molecular mimicry, which might further imply for association with thrombocytopenia. Specific study on this phenomenon can help better understand on the pathogenesis process of thrombocytopenia. In this study, the authors assessed the magnitude of molecular mimicry between the spike protein of SARS CoV2 and human thrombopoietin in wild type and important variants of COVID-19. In this work, the authors used a molecular similarity analysis to assess the impact of mutations in delta and delta plus variations. Each variant has a decreased similarity score and the omicron variant has the least similarity score. In this study, the decreased similarity score in the variant can imply decreased mimicry phenomenon. Hence, it can imply that there will be decreased COVID-19 thrombocytopenia problem in the variant.
