1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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 and importance: In the last few years, the novel coronavirus, named severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2), generated a large health care problem worldwide. Due to the immunomodulation effect of the virus the number of opportunistic infections has also increased. Case presentation: We present the unique case of a patient who was diagnosed with an actinomycotic liver abscess after coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) without the presence of any chronic disease or mucosal injury. Clinical discussion: According to the results of the computer tomography (CT scan) and the liver biopsy, the patient was treated with antibiotics and ultrasound-guided drainage. Conclusion: With this case we would like to draw attention to the possible occurrence of liver abscesses caused by an opportunistic pathogen following COVID-19.
