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

Introduction: Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection can lead to disorders of immune function and a decrease in the diversity of intestinal flora. We aimed to explore the changes of circulating immune cell subsets and the plasma level of intestinal short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs) in patients with Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), further understanding the pathogenesis of COVID-19. Methods: The study included 83 newly diagnosed COVID-19 patients and 39 non-COVID-19 controls. All have completed a full course of vaccination against SARS-CoV-2. The levels of peripheral lymphocyte subsets and plasma cytokines were detected by flow cytometry. Targeted metabolomics was used to explore the level of SCFAs in plasma. Results: Compared with the non-COVID-19 group, COVID-19 patients showed a decrease in CD19 Conclusion: Our study suggests the immune cell subsets in COVID-19 patients who had completed vaccination were still severely disturbed and concomitantly lower SCFAs, especially in severe patients with poor prognosis. Lower levels of plasma SCFAs may contribute to lymphopenia in COVID-19. The potential relationship between plasma SCFAs and immune cell reduction provides a new direction for the treatment of COVID-19.
