Interstitial Lung Disease at High Resolution CT after SARS-CoV-2-Related Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome According to Pulmonary Segmental Anatomy.
Article in Journal of clinical medicine, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 45 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
backgroundThe purpose of this study was to evaluate High-Resolution CT (HRCT) findings in SARS-CoV-2-related ARDS survivors treated with prolonged low-dose methylprednisolone after hospital discharge.
methodsA total of 44 consecutive patients (M: 32, F: 12, average age: 64), hospitalised in our department from April to September 2020 for SARS-CoV-2-related ARDS, who had a postdischarge CT scan, were enrolled into this retrospective study. We reviewed the electronic medical charts to collect laboratory, clinical, and demographic data. The CT findings were evaluated and classified according to lung segmental distribution. The imaging findings were correlated with spirometry results and included ground glass opacities (GGOs), consolidations, reticulations, bronchiectasis/bronchiolectasis, linear bands, and loss of pulmonary volume.
resultsAlterations in the pulmonary parenchyma were observed in 97.7% of patients at HRCT (median time lapse between ARDS diagnosis and HRCT: 2.8 months, range 0.9 to 6.7). The most common findings were linear bands (84%), followed by GGOs (75%), reticulations (34%), bronchiolectasis (32%), consolidations (30%), bronchiectasis (30%) and volume loss (25%). They had a symmetric distribution, and both lower lobes were the most affected areas.
conclusionsA reticular pattern with a posterior distribution was observed 3 months after discharge from severe COVID-19 pneumonia, and this differs from previously described postCOVID-19 fibrotic-like changes. We hypothesized that the systematic use of prolonged low-dose of corticosteroid could be the main reason of this different CT scan appearance.
