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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory viral illness that is caused by coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). The disease often presents with non-specific symptoms such as fever, headache, and fatigue, accompanied by respiratory symptoms (e.g., cough and dyspnea) and other systemic involvement. Currently, the virus had shown significant changes and mutations that resulted in the emergence of different strains. Each strain varies in its virulence, disease severity, and the response of the body's immune system. Sickle cell disease characterized by hemolytic anemia particularly in associated with stress. Patients with sickle cell disease infected with SARS-CoV-2 are reported to have increased risk for hospitalization, thrombosis, and other complications compared with non-sickle cell patients. The Omicron variant causes mild disease in general population; however, in patients with sickle cell disease, the data are limited. We present two patients known to have sickle cell disease presented with a severe acute painful crisis that required hospitalization after infection with Omicron variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
