Intrauterine fetal demise as a result of maternal COVID-19 infection in the third trimester of pregnancy: A case report.
Article in International journal of surgery case reports, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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
Introduction: As the global pandemic continues, more information is being collected on the incidence and range of adverse maternal and fetal outcomes resulting from COVID-19 infection. Presentation of case: We present a case of a 29-year-old unvaccinated patient at 36 weeks gestation with several days of mild symptoms after testing positive for COVID-19 who presented with a complaint of decreased fetal movement and was found to have an intrauterine fetal demise. This case was further notable for thrombocytopenia, acute postpartum hemorrhage and placental histologic findings showing morphologic changes consistent with previously reported pathology seen with maternal COVID-19 infection including marked perivillous fibrin deposition and marked acute and chronic intervillositis. Discussion: This case, combined with other similar reports in the literature, supports the conclusion that COVID-19 infection in pregnancy can result in severe perinatal adverse consequences regardless of initial maternal symptomatology. Conclusion: Pregnancies affected by COVID-19 may benefit from a higher level of surveillance and proactive care and further research is warranted.
