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

COVID-19 is the most widespread emerging infectious disease in humans, recently caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. Understanding the pathogenesis and development of efficient vaccines is crucial for the prevention and control of this emerging disease. SARS-CoV-2 viruses have widespread hosts, including humans, domesticated/companion animals (cats, dogs), specific farmed animals (minks), specific wildlife (white-tailed deer), and laboratory animal models. Bats are considered the original reservoir, and pangolins may be important intermediate hosts. Suitable animal models play an important role in studying the pathogenicity and evaluation of vaccines and antiviral drugs during the preclinical stage. In this review, we summarized the animal models and potential animal models for the research of SARS-CoV-2 pathogenesis, vaccine and antiviral drugs development, including transgenic mice, cats, hamsters, nonhuman primates, ferrets, and so on. Our summary provides the important information to select the animals used for a specific purpose and facilitates the development of novel vaccines and antivirals to prevent and control COVID-19.
