-This Nest is a copy of a previously-completed review presenting the evidence regarding the safety and efficacy of anti-virals that had randomized controlled trial (RCT) evidence reported in the treatment of COVID-19 as of January 2021.+Welcome to the walkthrough of the //COVID-19: Antivirals// demo Nest (open in your original tab). In this walkthrough, we'll explain the core functionalities of Nested Knowledge through this Nest. We encourage you to work through the Nest as you follow the walkthrough. The Nest available to you is a copy of the original and may be freely modified, so roll up your sleeves and get your hands dirty!

 Click the "Configure Study Tags" menu item to get started. Tag hierarchies consist of tags (visualized as points) and relationships between them (visualized as connecting lines). The tag hierarchy in this review includes 7 "root" tags - the highest level categories we're considering in the review. Hierarchies should be created and read as a series of "is a" relationships. For example, "Adverse Event" is a "Outcome", "Septic Shock" is a "Adverse Event". Hover around the hierarchy to explore tags and read off the "is a" relationships a you go. Click the "Configure Study Tags" menu item to get started.

 +==== Quantitative Synthesis ====
 +
 +Navigate back to Synthesis Home and click the Quantitative Synthesis box. Quantitative Synthesis (QNS) displays data gathered in the Extraction Module. QNS contains 3 different analyses automatically computed from extracted data.
 +
 +The Summary tab contains pooled estimates of outcomes, broken out by interventions. Interventions may be expanded to different levels of precision, while outcomes analyzed may be selected from the dropdown menus. In the below example, we find a 7.3% mortality rate among all antivirals, against an 11.6% mortality rate for control/standard of care; Arbidol suggests a lower rate but is only supported by a single study.

 +The NMA tab computes a Network Meta-Analysis, which estimates effect sizes between pairwise comparisons of interventions on an outcome. The NMA comes with a network diagram (showing how commonly interventions were compared with one another), an effect size matrix, and forest plots (accessed by clicking on a cell in the effects matrix). Use the intervention expansion menu on the right of the page to refine interventions analyzed.

 +===== Closing Remarks =====
 +
 +You've now seen how a review may be completed & shared with the Nested Knowledge platform. We encourage you to head back to AutoLit and explore the variety of configuration options, and ever-growing feature set we didn't get to cover here. If you're feeling ambitious, start your own Nest from scratch!
