Mild-to-Moderate Croup Presentations in Patients With 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. Cited by 2 papers.
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
This case series will describe two pediatric patients, aged nine months and two years, who presented to the emergency department with symptoms of croup. However, they were later found to have coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The two patients had no pre-existing medical conditions, and they were treated with steroids and nebulized epinephrine as required. They were discharged home with instructions to follow up with their primary care provider and to follow isolation guidelines. This report will illustrate how upper respiratory symptoms, including those consistent with croup, can be associated with or caused by an existing COVID-19 infection. More research is needed to determine if this association can lead to more long-term complications of COVID-19. Additionally, testing for COVID-19 should be incorporated into the assessment and management of this presentation. By recognizing this, clinicians can identify the cause of the illness sooner and initiate targeted treatment more effectively.
