Delirium in COVID-19: An Atypical Case Managed With Quetiapine.
Article in Cureus, 2022. 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
Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) can present without the typical symptoms of respiratory tract infection. Delirium has been reported as a prominent feature leading to an atypical presentation in older adults infected with COVID-19. Here, we present the case of a 65-year-old female who came to our hospital with confusion and altered mental status. The patient maintained an asymptomatic course of illness after testing positive for COVID-19 two weeks prior to the hospital visit. An appropriate workup was done to rule out other causes of the patient's symptoms. During the next couple of days, the patient developed classic symptoms suggestive of delirium. The patient was eventually treated based on the general guidelines for delirium management due to the absence of adequate medical literature specifying the management of delirium in the population of interest. Thus, the patient was given a trial of an atypical antipsychotic, quetiapine, to which she responded well and was subsequently discharged one week later.
