Characteristic patterns of SARS-CoV-2 on chest CT suggests a hematologic pathway for viral entry into the lung.
Article in Clinical imaging, 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
Many SARS-CoV-2 studies have supported the theory that the Type II alveolar epithelial cells (AEC-2) are the primary portal of entry of the virus into the lung following its brief nasal occupation. However, the theory of inhalational transmission of the virus from the ciliated and goblet nasal cells to the lung parenchyma is not supported by the imaging findings on chest computerized tomography (CT), leading the authors to consider an alternative pathway from the nose to the lung parenchyma that could explain the peripheral, basilar predominant pattern of early disease. Imaging supports that the pulmonary capillaries may be an important vehicle for transmission of the virus and/or associated inflammatory mediators to the lung epithelium.
