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 occurrence of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has become a serious challenge to global public health. Definitive and effective treatments for COVID-19 are still lacking, and targeted antiviral drugs are not available. In addition, viruses can regulate host innate immunity and antiviral processes through the epigenome to promote viral self-replication and disease progression. In this study, we first analyzed the methylation dataset of COVID-19 using the Monte Carlo feature selection method to obtain a feature list. This feature list was subjected to the incremental feature selection method combined with a decision tree algorithm to extract key biomarkers, build effective classification models and classification rules that can remarkably distinguish patients with or without COVID-19. EPSTI1, NACAP1, SHROOM3, C19ORF35, and MX1 as the essential features play important roles in the infection and immune response to novel coronavirus. The six significant rules extracted from the optimal classifier quantitatively explained the expression pattern of COVID-19. Therefore, these findings validated that our method can distinguish COVID-19 at the methylation level and provide guidance for the diagnosis and treatment of COVID-19.
