1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

A 40-year-old man developed granulomatosis with polyangiitis (GPA) following a mild case of COVID-19. Initially, he experienced mild migrating joint pain for 2 months prior to testing positive for SARS-CoV-2 but dramatically worsened following resolution of his infection. The pain continued to progress until he suddenly develope haemoptysis, prompting him to present to a local hospital. The diagnosis of diffuse alveolar haemorrhage secondary to GPA was confirmed with labs, imaging and histopathology. Precipitous deterioration of GPA with concurrent COVID-19 infection indicates a possible temporal relationship. Since the onset of the pandemic, SARS-CoV-2 has been anecdotally associated with the development of various connective tissue disorders. The overlapping clinical presentations and similar appearance on lung imaging present clinicians with a diagnostic challenge. This underscores the importance of having a high index of suspicion of autoimmune diagnoses in patients who present with new or worsening findings following a COVID-19 infection.
