Successful Non-surgical Treatment of an Acute Calculous Cholecystitis in a Myeloma Patient with Covid-19: Case Report.
Article in SN comprehensive clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 has a wide spectrum of clinical phenotypes. While fever and cough are the most common symptoms, abdominal pain is rarely reported. We report the first case of COVID-19 pneumonia in an elderly patient with multiple myeloma (MM), complicated by acute calculous cholecystitis (ACC). A 73-year-old gentleman with underlying IgG kappa MM, presented with fever, cough and dyspnoea. His nasopharyngeal swab was positive for SARS-CoV-2. Piperacillin/tazobactam and oral hydroxychloroquine were started in addition to granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (GCSF) support due to neutropenia. Patient deteriorated on day 5, requiring high flow oxygen support. Dexamethasone, low molecular weight heparin prophylaxis and one dose of intravenous immunoglobulin were given. Despite negative swab on day 10, he developed ACC on day 17. With antibiotics and supportive care, patient showed full recovery without any surgical intervention. It remains elusive whether the gallbladder might be vulnerable to COVID-19, necessitating further validation via prospective studies.
