An Atypical Case of Prolonged COVID-19 Infection.
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
Immunocompromised patients with COVID-19 can have prolonged disease courses that require escalation in care to inpatient or ICU settings. We report a case of a prolonged, active COVID-19 infection in an immunocompromised 61-year-old female with a history of non-Hodgkin's lymphoma. During her hospitalization, her cycle thresholds (CT) continued to worsen despite clinical improvement. We compared our patient's course and CTs to other reported cases in immunocompromised patients, investigating the efficacy of CTs and their use in evaluating disease progression and severity. RT-PCR tests targeting specific types of replicative viral RNA may have more utility in assessing disease severity and infectivity in immunocompromised patients. Our patient's disease course, similar to other reported cases, illustrates the need for improved treatment protocols and infection prevention for the immunocompromised population against SARS-CoV-2.
