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

The coronavirus infectious disease (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) viruses. The pandemic has emerged as a global public health crisis, and the threat of fast-spreading of the latest variants of the coronavirus (such as omicron, delta) is rampant. Therefore, a fast and reliable diagnostic assay is needed to make the clinical decision for further treatment. The study aims to develop a Centers for Disease and Prevention (CDC)-modified qualitative real-time reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-qPCR) assay and parallel assessment of commercially available RT-qPCR assay (Altona, Seegene, BD, and GBC) to detect SARS-CoV-2. Two hundred nine samples were chosen randomly out of around two hundred thousand samples. The panel consisted of SARS-CoV-2-positive ( Supplementary information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s00580-022-03356-y.
