Mechanisms and Severity of Exercise Intolerance Following COVID-19 and Similar Viral Infections: A Comparative Review.
Review in Cureus, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Approximately 19% of the population is suffering from "Long COVID", also known as post-acute sequelae of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) (PASC), which often results in exercise intolerance. As COVID infections continue to be common, studying the long-term consequences of coronavirus disease (COVID) on physical function has become increasingly important. This narrative review will aim to summarize the current literature surrounding exercise intolerance following COVID infection in terms of mechanism, current management approaches, and comparison with similar conditions and will aim to define limitations in the current literature. Multiple organ systems have been implicated in the onset of long-lasting exercise intolerance post-COVID, including cardiac impairment, endothelial dysfunction, decreased VO
