SARS-CoV-2 and mutation RT-qPCR test positivity correlation with ABO and Rh blood types.
Article in Journal of medical virology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Studies show that there may be a relationship between ABO blood type and SARS-CoV-2 transmission. It was aimed to determine by investigating the blood type of patients whose one-step reverse transcription and real-time polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) test were positive for SARS-CoV-2. ABO and Rh blood types of individuals whose RT-qPCR test was positive for SARS-CoV-2 were examined and an evaluation was made to identify whether there was a relationship between them or not. The blood type data of 44.928 SARS-CoV-2 positive RT-qPCR test results have been obtained. 17.656 (39.29%) were delta, 8048 (17.91%) were alpha, 800 (1.78%) were beta, and 3000 (6.67%) were omicrons while 15.424 (34.33%) SARS-CoV-2 positive mutation was found to be negative. Our study suggests that O and Rh (-) blood types may provide protection against delta, AB and Rh (+) blood types may hinder omicron infection while A and Rh (+) blood types may be more vulnerable to alpha and delta while B and Rh (+) are more sensitive to beta mutation. The molecular mechanism underlying the relationship between blood types and SARS-CoV-2 infection needs further molecular studies and multi-centered studies.
