Acute Severe Heart Failure in Paediatric Inflammatory Multisystem Syndrome Temporally Associated With SARS-CoV-2: A Case Report.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A 17-year-old boy presented during the COVID-19 pandemic in late 2021 with intractable fevers and hemodynamic instability with early gastrointestinal disturbances, resembling features of the pediatric inflammatory multisystem syndrome temporally associated with SARS-CoV-2. Our patient required intensive unit care for persistently worsening signs of cardiac failure; initial admission echocardiography demonstrated severe left ventricular dysfunction with an estimated ejection fraction of 27%. Treatment with intravenous IgG and corticosteroids showed a rapid improvement in symptoms, but further specialist cardiological input was required for heart failure in the coronary care unit. Substantial improvement in cardiac function was shown on echocardiography before discharge, initially to left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) 51% two days after the commencement of treatment and then to >55% four days later, and on cardiac MRI. An echocardiogram one month post-discharge was normal, and the patient reported complete resolution of heart failure symptoms by four months in addition to full restoration of functional status.
