Entropic Dynamics of Mutations in SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Sequences.
Article in Entropy (Basel, Switzerland), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
In this paper, we investigate a certain class of mutations in genomic sequences by studying the evolution of the entropy and relative entropy associated with the base frequencies of a given genomic sequence. Even if the method is, in principle, applicable to every sequence which varies randomly, the case of SARS-CoV-2 RNA genome is particularly interesting to analyze, due to the richness of the available sequence database containing more than a million sequences. Our model is able to track known features of the mutation dynamics like the Cytosine-Thymine bias, but also to reveal new features of the virus mutation dynamics. We show that these new findings can be studied using an approach that combines the mean field approximation of a Markov dynamics within a stochastic thermodynamics framework.
