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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic that spread rapidly around the world, causing an enormous overload on the health systems of the different affected countries. Among the many different manifestations of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, an uncommon complication is the development of pneumomediastinum. In the clinical case presented, the patient was diagnosed with COVID-19 pneumonia and due to severe refractory hypoxemia, she was submitted to therapy with non-invasive ventilation (NIV). After initial stabilization and improvement, there was unexpected clinical deterioration and pneumomediastinum was diagnosed. The purpose of this report is to highlight the importance of considering pneumomediastinum as a complication of COVID-19 pneumonia in cases subjected to non-invasive ventilation.
