Paralytic Ileus as an Extra-Pulmonary Manifestation of COVID-19.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Extra-pulmonary manifestations of COVID-19 (SARS-CoV-2) are of increasing interest as a consequence of the increase in cases worldwide and a better understanding of the pathophysiology of the disease. However, gastrointestinal symptoms are rarely described but are a common occurrence. We report a case of a 62-year-old male with severe pulmonary infection with COVID-19, who presented with abdominal pain, hematemesis, bloody diarrhea, and abdominal distention, which led to the diagnosis of paralytic ileus after diagnostic laparoscopy. Further, we discuss the potential pathophysiological mechanisms behind this manifestation of COVID-19.
