Severe Anemia Due to Cold Agglutinin Syndrome in a COVID-19 Patient with IgM Monoclonal Gammopathy of Undetermined Significance Successfully Treated with Corticosteroids.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2022. 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
Secondary cold agglutinin syndrome (CAS) is autoimmune hemolytic anemia secondary to infections and lymphoid disorder. We here report the first Asian case of CAS secondary to novel coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). A 72-year-old Japanese woman presented with a 2-week history of dyspnea and cough, and laboratory data revealed severe hemolytic anemia with a hemoglobin level of 4.7 g/dL. She was diagnosed with COVID-19, CAS, and monoclonal gammopathy of undetermined significance (MGUS). The anemia responded to corticosteroids administered for COVID-19 and required maintenance therapy. Although corticosteroids are not a standard therapy for CAS, they might be effective for CAS secondary to COVID-19 complicated with MGUS.
