Brain Leukocytes as the Potential Therapeutic Target for Post-COVID-19 Brain Fog.
Article in Neurochemical research, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
After recovering from the acute phase of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), many patients struggle with additional symptoms of long COVID during the chronic phase. Among them, the neuropsychiatric manifestations characterized by a short-term memory loss and inability to concentrate are called "brain fog". Recent studies have revealed the involvement of "chronic neuro-inflammation" in the pathogenesis of brain fog following COVID-19 infection. In the COVID-related brain fog, similarly to neurodegenerative disorders caused by neuro-inflammation, brain leukocytes, such as microglia and lymphocytes, are hyperactivated, suggesting the overexpression of delayed rectifier K
