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
Background: Globally, several measures have been taken to decrease COVID-19 mortality. However, the effectiveness of preventive measures on the mortality related to COVID-19 has not been fully assessed. Thus, the present study aimed the present study aimed to assess the success of COVID-19 epidemic management and control plan on the mortality associated with COVID-19 in Iran from February 19, 2020, to February 5, 2021. Methods: In the current quasi experimental study an interrupted time series analysis of daily collected data on confirmed deaths of COVID-19 occurred in Iran and in the world, were performed using Newey ordinary least squares regression-based methods. Results: In Iran, the trend of new deaths increased significantly every day until 24 November 2020 according to pre-intervention slope of [(OR 1.14, 95% CI 0.96-1.32,); P < 0.001]. The occurrence of new deaths had a decreasing trend after November 24, 2020, with a coefficient of [(OR -5.12, 95% CI -6.04 - -4.20), P < 0.001)]. But in the global level daily new deaths was increasing before [(OR 18.66, 95% CI 14.41-2292; P < 0.001)] and after the 24 November 2020 [(OR 57.14, 95% CI 20.80-93.49); P: 0.002]. Conclusions: Iranian COVID-19 epidemic management and control plan effectively reduced the mortality associated to COVID-19. Therefore, it is essential to continue these measures to prevent the increase in the number of deaths.
