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

The RBD, S, and N proteins, the three main antigens of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, activate the host immune system and cause the formation of IgM and IgG antibodies. While IgM indicates an early, acute infection stage, IgG shows a past infection or persistent sickness. This study used an indirect ELISA assay that targets the S1 subunit of the SARS-CoV-2 S protein to create an in-house, qualitative serological test specific to COVID-19. A total of 60 serum samples were examined using ELISA for anti-SARS-CoV-2 IgG, and 50 of those results were positive. An additional 20 samples were taken from cases that occurred before the pandemic. For the in-house ELISA assay, a plasmid containing the gene coding for the S1 subunit was transformed into
