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

Viral infection is known to be a trigger of autoimmune diseases. Numerous cases of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) with autoimmune manifestations have been reported and several authors have highlighted the relationship between severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and autoimmune diseases. Autoimmune myopathies being one of these manifestations. A 27-year-old diabetic woman was admitted for management of acido-ketosis decompensation of her diabetes secondary to SARS-CoV-2 infection. During hospitalization, she developed muscle weakness and increased creatine kinase levels, which led us to assay the autoimmunity pattern which became positive for myositis-specific autoantibodies against single recognition particle (anti-SRP). The patient was treated with intense hydration with clinical and biological improvement and anti-SRP disappeared two months later. Positive myositis auto-antibodies are one of the autoimmune complications that could be seen during and after the SARS-CoV-2 infection.
