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

Since the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, no viral genome sequences of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) have been documented from the Republic of Moldova, a developing country geographically located in Eastern Europe between Romania and Ukraine. Here, we report the analysis of 96 SARS-CoV-2 sequences from Delta and Omicron variants of the SARS-CoV-2 cases in the Republic of Moldova obtained between August and November 2021 and between January and May 2022. Comparison to global viral sequences showed that among the Delta variant of the SARS-CoV-2, AY.122 (n = 25), followed by AY.4.2.3 (n = 6), AY.4 (n = 5), AY.43 (n = 3), AY.98.1 (n = 3), B.1.617.2 (n = 1), AY.125 (n = 1), AY.54 (n = 1), AY.9 (n = 1), AY.126 (n = 1), and AY.33 (n = 1) were the most frequently found lineages. Furthermore, 10 lineages of the Omicron variant, namely, BA.2 (n = 14), followed by BA.2.9 (n = 10), BA.1 (n = 5), BA.1.1 (n = 5), BA.1.18 (n = 4), BA.1.15.1 (n = 3), BA.1.17.2 (n = 2), BA.1.17 (n = 2), BA.1.15 (n = 1), and BA.2.1 (n = 1) were detected. In addition, we also identified the impact of the military crisis between Russia and Ukraine, when the COVID-19 epidemiological rules collapsed, on the distribution of Delta and Omicron variants in the Republic of Moldova. Additional studies are warranted to characterize further the impact of the war between Russia and Ukraine on the genomic epidemiology of the SARS-CoV-2 in the Republic of Moldova and Eastern Europe.
