Unilateral Diaphragmatic Paralysis in a Patient With COVID-19 Pneumonia.
Article in Cureus, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 8 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
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is best known for causing febrile pneumonia with lung parenchymal involvement. However, that is often not the only disease presentation, as many studies have shown that coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can present with other complications involving the cardiovascular and neurologic systems. Here, we report a case of COVID-19 pneumonia presenting with a peculiar finding of unilateral diaphragmatic paralysis. The patient presented with dyspnea requiring oxygen support via a nasal cannula. He was managed with the hospital's COVID-19 treatment protocols and clinically improved within 14 days of admission. This case helps shine some light on the neuroinvasive potential of SARS-CoV-2.
