A Case of COVID-19-Associated Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia With Hyperferritinemia in an Immunocompetent Host.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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 report an interesting case of a middle-aged gentleman who presented with diabetic ketoacidosis (DKA) and tested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) positive for COVID-19 infection. His hospital stay was complicated by acute kidney injury, hematuria, and normocytic anemia. Initial chest x-ray demonstrated bibasilar opacities. D-dimer and C-reactive protein were elevated. During his hospital stay, his hemoglobin decreased from 13.4 g/dL to 9 g/dL, and further workup demonstrated ferritin of 49,081 ng/mL with lactate dehydrogenase of 1665 U/L. He was treated with prednisone and folic acid for autoimmune hemolytic anemia (AIHA). Ferritin was downtrended, and hemoglobin stabilized. As demonstrated by this case report and prior literature review, COVID-19 infection can be associated with AIHA.
