Case Report: Intercurrent infections in COVID-19-induced sustained immunodepression: is interferon gamma a suitable drug?
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 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
Acute immuno-depression syndrome (AIDs) had been observed in many life-threatening conditions leading to the Intensive Care Unit. and is associated with recurrent secondary infections. We report one COVID-19 patient with a severe ARDS, demonstrating acute immunodepression syndrome lasting for several weeks. The occurrence of secondary infections despite long treatment by antibiotics led to combined interferon γ (IFNγ) as reported previously. The response to IFNγ was evaluated by the flowcytometry HLA-DR expression on circulating monocytes, which was repeated from time to time. The severe COVID-19 patients responded well to IFNγ without adverse events.
