Considerations into pharmacogenomics of COVID-19 pharmacotherapy: Hope, hype and reality.
Review in Pulmonary pharmacology & therapeutics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
COVID-19 medicines, such as molnupiravir are beginning to emerge for public health and clinical practice. On the other hand, drugs display marked variability in their efficacy and safety. Hence, COVID-19 medicines, as with all drugs, will be subject to the age-old maxim "one size prescription does not fit all". In this context, pharmacogenomics is the study of genome-by-drug interactions and offers insights on mechanisms of patient-to-patient and between-population variations in drug efficacy and safety. Pharmacogenomics information is crucial to tailoring the patients' prescriptions to achieve COVID-19 preventive and therapeutic interventions that take into account the host biology, patients' genome, and variable environmental exposures that collectively influence drug efficacy and safety. This expert review critically evaluates and summarizes the pharmacogenomics and personalized medicine aspects of the emerging COVID-19 drugs, and other selected drug interventions deployed to date. Here, we aim to sort out the hope, hype, and reality and suggest that there are veritable prospects to advance COVID-19 medicines for public health benefits, provided that pharmacogenomics is considered and implemented adequately. Pharmacogenomics is an integral part of rational and evidence-based medical practice. Scientists, health care professionals, pharmacists, pharmacovigilance practitioners, and importantly, patients stand to benefit by expanding the current pandemic response toolbox by the science of pharmacogenomics, and its applications in COVID-19 medicines and clinical trials.
