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

In previous clinical studies, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection in cancer patients has a high risk of aggravation and mortality than in healthy infected individuals. Inoculation with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) vaccine reduces the risk of SARS-CoV-2 infection and COVID-19 severity. However, vaccination-induced anti-SARS-CoV-2 antibody production is said to be lower in cancer patients than in healthy individuals. In addition, the rationale for why the condition of patients with cancer worsens with COVID-19 is not well understood. Therefore, we examined the infection status of SARS-CoV-2 in the primary tumor and micrometastasis tissues of the patient with cancer and COVID-19. In this study, the expression of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) was observed, and SARS-CoV-2 particles was detected in ovarian tissue cells in contact with the micrometastatic niche of the patient with high-grade serous ovarian cancer. We believe that the severity of COVID-19 in patients with cancer can be attributed to these pathological features. Therefore, the pathological findings of patients with advanced and recurrent ovarian cancer infected with SARS-CoV-2 may help decrease COVID-19 severity in patients with other cancer types.
