Long COVID Mimicking Interstitial Lung Disease: A Case Series.
Article in Current health sciences journal. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Interstitial lung diseases (ILD) can occur due to various known or unknown causes. They usually present with dry cough and exertional dyspnea. On radiology usual findings are ground glass opacities (GGO's), reticular shadows, nodules etc. Some patients after acute COVID-19 (coronavirus disease 2019) suffer from persistent symptoms/manifestations. These have been called 'Long COVID'. Long COVID also has radiological features like GGO's, nodules and reticulations. Further, patients even without history of acute COVID-19, can also present with 'Long COVID'. In the present case series, we describe three such cases with no history of having suffered from COVID-19, presenting with ILD like features and diagnosed as Long COVID. We infer from these cases that 'Long COVID' can both clinically and radiologically mimic ILD's. Hence, emphasizing the fact that in the present COVID-19 pandemic situation, 'Long COVID should be a differential diagnosis to be considered while making a new diagnosis of ILD.
