Network Meta-Analysis on the Mechanisms underlying Type 2 Diabetes Augmentation of COVID-19 Pathologies.
Article in Archives of microbiology & immunology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Coronavirus disease-2019 (COVID-19) is caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. SARS-CoV-2 virus is internalized by surface receptors, e.g., angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 (ACE2). Clinical reports suggest that non-insulin dependent diabetes mellitus (DM-II) may enhance COVID-19. This bioinformatics study investigated how DM-II augments COVID-19 complications through molecular interactions with cytokines/chemokines, using QIAGEN Ingenuity Pathway Analysis (IPA) and CLC Genomics Workbench 22 (CLCG-22). "(Iβ-CG) RNA-sequencing of (Iβ-CG) through CLCG-22 (SRA SRP287500) were analyzed to identify differential expression of (Iβ-CG). IPA's QIAGEN Knowledge Base (QKB) was also used to retrieve 88 total molecules shared between DM-II and SARS-CoV-2 infection to characterize and identify Iβ-CG, due to close association with DM-II. Molecules directly associated with ACE2 and cytokines/chemokines were also identified for their association with SARS-CoV-2 infection. Using IPA, it was found that 3 Iβ-CG (SCL2A2, PPARγ, and CPLX8) are common in both diseases that were downregulated by DM-II. Their downregulation occurred due to increased activity of cytokines/chemokines and ACE2. Collectively, this network meta-analysis demonstrated that interaction of SARS-CoV-2 with ACE2 could primarily induce endothelial cell dysfunction. Identification of common molecules and signaling pathways between DM-II and SARS-CoV-2 infection in this study may lead to further discovery of therapeutic measures to simultaneously combat both diseases.
