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

More than 2 years after the pandemic, the availability of vaccination and the use of monoclonal antibodies and direct antivirals have changed the fate of COVID-19, allowing for a better management of the disease, reducing hospitalization rates, and improving survival. This study aims to describe the outcome of COVID-19 in a cohort of solid organ transplant recipients and the impact of novel antivirals against SARS-CoV-2. We conducted an observational retrospective cohort study. We enrolled solid organ transplant recipients with COVID-19 attending the A.O.U. Federico II of Naples and followed up from January 2022 to July 2022. We enrolled 40 SOTs with COVID-19. Our experience highlights the favorable impact of therapies with antivirals and monoclonal antibodies in the early stages of COVID-19. Interesting data concern the impact of immunosuppressive therapy on COVID-19, in particular the role of Mycophenolate (associated with deterioration to severe COVID-19) and Everolimus (protective for progression to severe disease) needs to be investigated. Our experience also confirms the fundamental role of vaccination and in particular the importance of the booster dose.
