Favourable outcome of severe COVID-19 patients in hyperinflammatory phase with high dose dexamethasone pulse therapy: A series of 10 cases.
Article in Journal of family medicine and primary care, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The hyperinflammatory phase of COVID-19 occurring because of cytokine storm is the leading cause of mortality and morbidity in the affected patients. Various drugs with no definite cure are being tried to tackle the cytokine storm. Recently high dose corticosteroids are being used to arrest the surge of cytokines. In the current case series, we will be discussing the outcome of high dose dexamethasone pulse therapy in 10 cases of COVID-19 in hyperinflammatory phase who were cured of the disease along with improvement in laboratory parameters without any complications to the therapy.
