Anatomy matters: The role of the subject-specific respiratory tract on aerosol deposition - A CFD study.
Article in Computer methods in applied mechanics and engineering, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 12 papers.
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
The COVID-19 pandemic is one of the greatest challenges to humanity nowadays. COVID-19 virus can replicate in the host's larynx region, which is in contrast to other viruses that replicate in lungs only, i.e. SARS. This is conjectured to support a fast spread of COVID-19. However, there is sparse research in this field about quantitative comparison of virus load in the larynx for varying susceptible individuals. In this regard the lung geometry itself could influence the risk of reproducing more pathogens and consequently exhaling more virus. Disadvantageously, there are only sparse lung geometries available. To still be able to investigate realistic geometrical deviations we employ three different digital replicas of human airways up to the
