Multisystem inflammatory syndrome in a neonate with severe hemophilia - a diagnostic challenge in COVID times: a case report.
Article in BMC pediatrics, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
backgroundMultisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Neonates (MIS-N) can occur following antenatal COVID- 19 infection in the mother. Here we report a rare case of a neonate with Hemophilia A and MIS-N. CASE PRESENTATION: A 2-day-old baby presented with an intramuscular hematoma, neonatal seizures, and isolated activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) prolongation. The neurosonogram showed a subdural hematoma. A diagnosis of Hemophilia A was made and was confirmed by factor 8 assay and genetic analysis. Supportive measures and Factor 8 replacement was initiated. A rising trend of inflammatory markers and an ongoing need for mechanical ventilation were noted. As there was a history of COVID-19 in the mother in the third trimester, MIS-N was diagnosed. The baby was treated with intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) and steroids, and there was an improvement in the clinical and laboratory markers. However, the baby developed seizures on day 16. There was an increase in the subdural hemorrhage and a further rise in inflammatory markers. A craniostomy and hematoma evacuation was done and the baby improved.
conclusionThe concurrent occurrence of hemophilia A with intracranial bleed, and MIS-N in a neonate is a diagnostic challenge. It is important to have a high index of suspicion to ensure timely diagnosis and treatment of MIS-N in this pandemic era.
