Subacute Enteritis Two Months After COVID-19 Pneumonia With Mucosal Bleeding, Perforation, and Internal Fistulas.
Article in The American surgeon, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Chronic sequelae of COVID-19 remain undetermined. We report a case of postinfection sequelae in a patient presenting with subacute obstruction 2 months after COVID-19 infection. A 34-year-old man with a prior prolonged hospital stay due to COVID-19 complicated by upper gastrointestinal (GI) bleed presented with subacute obstruction and failure to thrive. Upper GI push enteroscopy revealed residual ulcers and multiple proximal jejuno-jejunal fistulae. Midline laparotomy revealed strictures with dense intra-abdominal adhesions, a large jejuno-jejunal fistula, and evidence of prior jejunal perforation following severe COVID-19 infection. The patient recovered after small bowel resection with anastomoses and was discharged home. Histopathological examination of resected specimen confirmed transmural infarction with evidence of prior hemorrhage, diffuse ulcers, and multifocal inflammation. This is the first report of a chronic GI sequelae resulting from COVID-19. As the pandemic evolves, medical professionals must be vigilant to consider alternative GI diagnoses in the COVID-19 survivors.
