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

This report describes the development of a data-driven approach for identifying individuals who tested negative to a SARS-CoV-2 infection, despite their residence with individuals who had confirmed infections. Household studies have demonstrated efficiency in evaluating exposure to SARS-CoV-2. Leveraging earlier studies based on the household unit, our analysis utilized close contacts in order to trace chains of infection and to subsequently categorize TEFLONs, an acronym for Timely Exposed to Family members Leaving One Not infected. We used over one million anonymized electronic medical records, retrieved from Maccabi Healthcare Services' centralized computerized database from March 2020 to March 2022. The analysis yielded 252 TEFLONs, who were probably at very high risk of infection and yet, demonstrated clinical resistance. The exposure extent in each household positively correlated with household size, reflecting the in-house rolling transmission event. Our approach can be easily implemented in other clinical fields and should spur further research of clinical resistance to various infections.
