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

The unprecedented novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic is a threat to global health and the economy. Since the outbreak of COVID-19, great effort has been made to reposition existing drugs to shorten development timelines, in addition to vaccine development and drug discovery campaigns. Umifenovir is a broad-spectrum antiviral agent used to treat influenza in China and Russia and is currently undergoing clinical trials for the treatment of COVID-19. In this article, the synthesis of umifenovir analogues and their biological evaluation are reported. The inhibitory activities of analogues against the binding of the spike glycoprotein (S-protein) of the novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) to the ACE2 receptor, which is a possible mode of action for umifenovir to inhibit viral infection, were investigated.
