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

backgroundDetermination of SARS-CoV-2 variant is significant to prevent the spreads of COVID-19 disease.

methodsWe aimed to evaluate the variants of SARS-CoV-2 rate in positive patients in Kanuni Sultan Suleyman Training and Research Hospital (KSS-TRH), Istanbul, Türkiye between 1st January and 30th November 2021 by using RT-PCR method.

resultsHerein, 825,169 patients were evaluated (male:58.53% and female:41.47%) whether COVID-19 positive or not [( +):21.3% and (-):78.7%] and 175,367 patient was described as positive (53.2%-female and 46.8%-male) by RT-PCR. COVID-19 positive rate is observed highest in the 6-15- and 66-75-year age range. The frequencies were obtained as SARS-CoV-2 positive (without mutation of B.1.1.7 [B.1.1.7 (U.K), E484K, L452R, B.1.351 (S. Africa/Brazil) spike mutations] as 66.1% (n: 115,899), B.1.1.7 Variant as 23.2% (n:40,686), Delta mutation (L452R) variant as 9.8% (n:17,182), B.1.351 variant as 0.8% (n:1370) and E484K as 0.1% (n: 230). In April 2021, general SARS-CoV-2 and B.1.1.7 variant were dominantly observed. Up to July 2021, B.1.617.2 (Delta variant/ Indian variant) and E484K has been not observed. B.1.351 variant of SARS-CoV-2 has been started in February 2021 at the rarest ratio and March 2021 is the top point. September 2021 is the pick point of E484K. African/Brazil variant of SARS-CoV-2 has been started in February 2021 at the rarest ratio and March 2021 is the top point. September 2021 is the pick point of E484K. When the gender type is compared within the variants, women were found to be more prevalent in all varieties.

conclusionsThe meaning of these mutations is very important to understand the transmission capacity of the COVID-19 disease, pandemic episode, and diagnosis of the virus with mutation types. Understanding the variant type is important for monitoring herd immunity and the spread of the disease.
