Myasthenia Gravis Associated With COVID-19 Infection.
Article in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
COVID-19 first emerged in Wuhan, China in late December 2019. The disease majorly involves the lungs leading to various respiratory complications; however, neurological manifestations of the disease are also described in the literature. Here, we report a case of COVID-19-induced seronegative myasthenia gravis (MG). We discuss the cases of COVID-19 and MG already described in the literature in regard to their presentation and serological findings to better understand the association between the two disease processes. MG may be missed in patients after COVID-19 infections because of the comorbidities and anti-acetylcholine receptor and anti-muscle-specific tyrosine kinase antibodies being negative. Evidence from more studies will help analyze the pathological timeline of the disease process and the immunological characteristics of COVID-19-induced MG which can prove to have morbidity and mortality benefit in patients with COVID-19-induced MG.
