A Case of COVID-19-Associated Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
This case report details a 43-year-old female diagnosed with the collapsing variant of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) post-infection with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19). The patient contracted COVID-19 after returning from a trip to Florida and initially presented to the emergency department with gastrointestinal symptoms. Thereafter, the patient was diagnosed with COVID-19 and was admitted for acute kidney injury and worsening COVID-19 infection. FSGS is a glomerulopathy that consists of glomerular scarring that leads to nephrotic syndrome, secondary to podocyte effacement. FSGS has many causes, as well as distinct variants, but is noted to have an association with some viruses, most notably HIV and cytomegalovirus (CMV). Although the association between FSGS and HIV or CMV is well established, the evidence is minimal in regard to other viruses. This case report serves to highlight the potential association of COVID-19 with FSGS.
