Case Report: Resolution of Lichen Planus Pemphigoides as an unexpected outcome of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
Article in Frontiers in immunology, 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
It is well known that viral infections play a relevant role in inducing or protecting from autoimmune diseases, thus representing a major environmental factor in the disruption of the immune system in genetically susceptible individuals. Since the beginning of the Covid-19 pandemic a great number of clinical and epidemiological studies have demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 infection is no exception to the rule by interfering on many different levels in the normal functioning of our immune system. Even though a growing number of case series and case reports has been cited in the literature linking the infection to the new onset of autoimmune diseases, to date very little has been reported concerning a possible correlation between the virus and the clinical resolution of any kind of autoimmune pathology. Here we describe an interesting case of abrupt and unexpected resolution of Lichen planus pemphigoides mucocutaneous lesions in a fully vaccinated patient after a mildly symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 respiratory infection and we speculate on the possible underlying mechanisms correlating the two events.
