Case Report: Sublingual Microcirculatory Alterations in a Covid-19 Patient With Subcutaneous Emphysema, Venous Thrombosis, and Pneumomediastinum.
Article in Frontiers in medicine, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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 Corona virus disease 2019 (Covid-19) has brought a wide range of challenges in intensive care medicine. Understanding of the pathophysiology of Covid-19 relies on interpreting of its impact on the vascular, particularly microcirculatory system. Herein we report on the first use of the latest generation hand-held vital microscope to evaluate the sublingual microcirculation in a Covid-19 patient with subcutaneous emphysema, venous thrombosis and pneumomediastinum. Remarkably, microcirculatory parameters of the patient were increased during the exacerbation period, which is not a usual finding in critically ill patients mostly presenting with a loss of hemodynamic coherence. In contrast, recovery from the disease led to a subsequent amelioration of these parameters. This report clearly shows the importance of microcirculatory monitoring for evaluating the course and the adequacy of therapy in Covid-19 patients.
