Clinical Profile and Outcomes of COVID-19-Associated Transverse Myelitis: A Case Report and Review of Literature.
Review in Neurology. Clinical practice, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Purpose of Review: The purpose of this study was to evaluate demographics, clinical profiles, and outcomes of transverse myelitis (TM) in the setting of COVID-19 infection (iTM) or vaccination (vTM) and to describe a case of spontaneous resolution of iTM. Recent Findings: Of a total of 158 articles that met our search criteria, 30 articles detailing 65 unique cases were included, of which 48 (73.8%) were iTM and 17 (26.2%) were vTM. The mean age of the iTM group was significantly lower as compared with vTM (43 ± 20.3 years vs 56.4 ± 18.6 years; Summary: There are no significant differences with respect to time to presentation, clinical and radiological features, and in outcomes between iTM and vTM, suggesting a common pathogenesis. Approximately 80% of cases have a good outcome. Hence, early recognition and treatment are important. Our case demonstrates that treatment should be based on the clinical presentation rather than laboratory or imaging features.
