Recovery of Moderate Coronavirus Disease 2019 in a Liver Transplant Recipient on Continued Immunosuppression: A Case Report.
Article in Transplantation proceedings, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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 global outbreak of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has had an enormous impact on the world. Owing to limited data available, it remains unclear to what extent liver transplant recipients should be considered at a higher risk of severe disease. We describe a moderate course of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) in a patient who underwent a liver transplant 2 years earlier because of Budd-Chiari syndrome. The patient presented with malaise, headache, dry cough, and fever for 4 days. Immunosuppressive therapy with tacrolimus and mycophenolate mofetil was continued throughout the course of infection. Oxygen therapy was given for a single night, and the patient gradually recovered with supportive care only. With this case report, we demonstrate that liver transplantation and immunosuppression is not necessarily associated with severe COVID-19 and emphasize that more information on this matter is urgently required. Withdrawal of immunosuppressive therapy could be associated with higher mortality.
