A Flare of Hepatitis C Virus-Associated Cryoglobulinemic Vasculitis After COVID-19.
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
While undergoing treatment for hepatitis C virus (HCV)-associated cryoglobulinemic vasculitis (CV), a 53-year-old male contracted coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), resulting in a disease flare. Although HCV became negative due to the use of glecaprevir/pibrentasvir, CV remained uncontrolled, and the patient was treated with prednisolone, azathioprine, colchicine, and rituximab. He had not been vaccinated against severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2). He was infected with SARS-CoV-2, likely the omicron variant, and developed a severe illness. However, mechanical ventilation and the administration of remdesivir, dexamethasone, unfractionated heparin, and tocilizumab improved his respiratory failure. Despite improvement in respiratory failure, the patient's skin lesions and peripheral neuropathy rapidly worsened, followed by the development of intestinal ischemia, which led to death. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first case of acute exacerbation immediately after SARS-CoV-2 infection of HCV-associated CV on immunosuppressive therapy.
