Coexistence of Pancytopenia and Myositis After Developing COVID-19.
Article in Cureus, 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
COVID-19 causes not only acute but also subacute medical conditions during the clinical course. COVID-19 causes severe inflammatory conditions; therefore, patients may develop long-term complications. Among patients with acute COVID-19, some patients can experience persistent symptoms, such as fatigue, joint pain, and smell and taste abnormalities, known as the long COVID-19 syndrome. The symptoms can be severe and require continuous medical care. Patients with severe clinical courses of COVID-19 may have critical symptoms again after the cure of the acute infections, especially among older patients. We encountered a case of neutropenia and myositis one month after contracting COVID-19. An 89-year-old man presented to our hospital with acute-onset systemic muscle pain and difficulty in movement and speaking. The patient had neutropenia and myositis with an extremely high level of immunoglobulin G caused by COVID-19. A granulocyte colony-stimulating factor could be effective for treating neutropenia. Besides, prednisolone was effective for treating myositis. In community hospitals, after developing COVID-19, appropriate history taking and physical examination should be performed in older patients with ambiguous symptoms, as they might have critical medical conditions such as neutropenia and myositis. The appropriate diagnosis and treatments of older patients with the complications of COVID-19 should be performed.
