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
The SARS-CoV-2 virus, which emerged in December 2019, has infected millions worldwide and caused many deaths. Due to its high mortality rate, several studies assessed the effectiveness of different drugs against COVID-19, mainly in reducing the hospitalization rate among the elderly and compromised patients. Lopinavir-ritonavir combination and remdesivir were among the medications used to treat COVID-19. Due to considerable differences in the effectiveness and clinical outcomes of the two treatments, this study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes between COVID-19 patients treated with antiretrovirals (lopinavir-ritonavir) and remdesivir. A total of 33 patients on lopinavir-ritonavir and 35 on remdesivir were selected for this study. A retrospective comparative analysis was conducted based on demographic characteristics, hospital stay, laboratory parameters of C-reactive protein (CRP) and plasma blood oxygen saturation (SPO
