A Case of Suspected Radiation Recall Pneumonitis After a COVID-19 Infection.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
We present the case of a 78-year-old woman who received definitive radiation therapy for small cell lung cancer three and a half years ago. She was asymptomatic when she tested positive for coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). She then developed a rapid decline in respiratory status on day seven. Chest radiograph revealed a strong shadow at the prior irradiation site. Radiation recall reactions are usually caused by drug administration, but in this case, it was suspected to be caused by COVID-19.
