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

The clinical course of COVID in the pediatric population is considered to be much milder when compared to adults; however, the occurrence of severe and fatal forms of the disease in children is non-negligible, especially in patients with comorbidities such as prematurity or cardiac disease. We report a case of a newborn with sotalol-controlled fetal ventricular tachycardia, who was postnatally diagnosed with COVID infection. The myocardial injury was sustained on the basis of pericardial effusion, left ventricular dysfunction, rapid progression to coronary artery dilation, and an arrhythmic storm. We believe that, in our case, there is a significant overlap between fetal ventricular tachycardia, associated with impaired left ventricular function, and COVID infection, diagnosed after birth; both factors contribute to the myocardial dysfunction with a fulminant clinical evolution. To our knowledge, this is the first case describing neonatal myocardial dysfunction associated with SARS-CoV infection complicating the clinical course of rare fetal tachyarrhythmia.
