The Potential Effect of Dapsone on the Inflammatory Reactions in COVID-19: Staggering View.
Review in Combinatorial chemistry & high throughput screening, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is linked with an overstated immune response with the succeeding release of pro-inflammatory cytokines and progression of the cytokine storm. In addition, severe SARS-CoV-2 infection is associated with the development of oxidative stress and coagulopathy. Dapsone (DPS) is a bacteriostatic antibiotic that has a potent anti-inflammatory effect. Thus, this mini-review aimed to elucidate the potential role of DPS in mitigating inflammatory disorders in COVID-19 patients. DPS inhibits neutrophil myeloperoxidase, inflammation, and neutrophil chemotaxis. Therefore, DPS could be effective against neutrophilia-induced complications in COVID-19. In addition, DPS could be effective in mitigating inflammatory and oxidative stress disorders by suppressing the expression of inflammatory signaling pathways and the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) correspondingly. In conclusion, DPS might be effective in the management of COVID-19 through the attenuation of inflammatory disorders. Therefore, preclinical and clinical studies are reasonable in this regard.
