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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a respiratory and systemic disease caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection. Since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic, pneumothorax (PTX) has only been reported as a complication of the virus-induced pneumonia in less than 1% of cases. The majority of them developed symptoms in the setting of either an underlying history of lung disease or being placed on a mechanical ventilator during admission. The authors report a unique case of PTX in a patient with a recent COVID pneumonia that did not fit the aforementioned clinical picture - a 41-year-old male with a complete collapse of his right lung who was previously admitted for COVID pneumonia with no known pulmonary history and was not intubated. A chest tube was placed with the resolution of the PTX and the patient is being monitored on the medicine floor.
