The role of complement in long COVID pathogenesis.
Review in JCI insight, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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
Long COVID is a debilitating condition that can develop after a SARS-CoV-2 infection and is characterized by a wide range of chronic symptoms, including weakness, neurocognitive impairment, malaise, fatigue, and many others, that affect multiple organ systems. At least 10% of individuals with a previous infection may develop long COVID, which affects their ability to perform daily functions and work. Despite its severity and widespread impact, this multisystemic condition remains poorly understood. Recent studies suggest that dysregulation of the complement system, a key component of the innate immune response, may contribute to the pathogenesis of long COVID, particularly in connection with coagulation, inflammation, and vascular injury. In this Review, we examine the evidence linking complement system dysregulation to long COVID and explore its potential role in driving disease pathology.
