COVID-19 ORF3a Viroporin-Influenced Common and Unique Cellular Signaling Cascades in Lung, Heart, and the Brain Choroid Plexus Organoids with Additional Enriched MicroRNA Network Analyses for Lung and the Brain Tissues.

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
Tissue-specific implications of SARS-CoV-2-encoded accessory proteins are not fully understood. SARS-CoV-2 infection can severely affect three major organs-the heart, lungs, and brain. We analyzed SARS-CoV-2 ORF3a interacting host proteins in these three major organs. Furthermore, we identified common and unique interacting host proteins and their targeting miRNAs (lung and brain) and delineated associated biological processes by reanalyzing RNA-seq data from the brain (COVID-19-infected/uninfected choroid plexus organoid study), lung tissue from COVID-19 patients/healthy subjects, and cardiomyocyte cells-based transcriptomics analyses. Our in silico studies showed ORF3a interacting proteins could vary depending upon tissues. The number of unique ORF3a interacting proteins in the brain, lungs, and heart were 10, 7, and 1, respectively. Though common pathways influenced by SARS-CoV-2 infection were more, unique 21 brain and 7 heart pathways were found. One unique pathway for the heart was negative regulation of calcium ion transport. Reported observations of COVID-19 patients with a history of hypertension taking calcium channel blockers (CCBs) or dihydropyridine CCBs had an elevated rate of intubation or increased rate of intubation/death, respectively. Also, the likelihood of hospitalization of chronic CCB users with COVID-19 was greater in comparison to long-term angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors/angiotensin receptor blockers users. Further studies are necessary to confirm this. miRNA analysis of ORF3a interacting proteins in the brain and lungs revealed 3 of 37 brain miRNAs and 1 of 25 lung miRNAs with high degree and betweenness indicating their significance as hubs in the interaction network. Our study could help in identifying potential tissue-specific COVID-19 drug/drug repurposing targets.
