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

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic was a global health emergency that significantly affected both the wellbeing of individuals and the global economy. Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the degree of SARS-CoV-2 involvement, viral load, and immunological response in adults aged 18-65 who performed essential tasks in the municipality of Andratx (Balearic Islands, Spain) compared to those who did not. Additionally, the study examined these factors in children aged 2-18 years from both groups, if there were any. Materials: Both groups were monitored between July 2020 and February 2021, in which the degree of involvement, the viral load, and the immunological response to the SARS-CoV-2 were analyzed using questionnaires, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) tests, and ELISA serology tests. Results: A positive case of RT-PCR test was found in screening the general population. The highest 2019-nCoV(N)-Ig antibody levels in plasma were measured from 1 to 17 February 2021, with the following percentage of positives: 6.8% of essential workers, 9.5% of essential workers' sons, 7.3% of non-essential workers, and 2.2% of non-essential workers' sons. However, an increase in levels of anti-SARS-CoV-2 (N) immunoglobulin G (IgG) and anti-SARS-CoV-2 (N) immunoglobulin M (IgM) were produced in session 3, from 9 to 25 November 2020, in both cases in non-essential workers, with a mean of 218.1 ng/mL of anti-SARS-CoV-2 (N) IgG and 31.3 ng/mL of anti-SARS-CoV-2 (N) IgM. Conclusion: The control measures taken to manage the COVID-19 pandemic in the municipality of Andratx, Mallorca, Spain, were effective.
