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 COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in a significant number of individuals experiencing the loss of smell and taste, medically known as anosmia and ageusia, respectively. While many patients recover these senses during the post-acute phase of the illness, a subset of individuals continues to suffer from anosmia and ageusia even after recovering from COVID-19. This article aims to explore the psychological state of COVID patients who have not regained their sense of smell and taste post-recovery, highlighting the potential impact on their mental health and overall well-being. To accomplish this, a comprehensive review of existing literature on the topic has been conducted, analyzing studies and reports that shed light on the psychological consequences of unrecovered anosmia and ageusia in COVID patients.
