Complicated and persistent severe COVID-19 pneumonia in a recipient of allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
We describe the case of a 45-year-old man affected by T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukaemia and diagnosed with COVID-19 early after an allogeneic haematopoietic stem cell transplant. The infectious disease was characterised by a severe and prolonged course, further complicated by a spontaneous pneumomediastinum and pneumopericardium. We successfully treated this patient with the antiviral drug remdesivir associated with two courses of COVID-19 convalescent plasma. This case report represents a good example of the typical clinical course of COVID-19 in severely immunosuppressed patients and gives evidence that in this population only a prompt treatment directed towards viral clearance can face the absence of a valid immune reactivity.
