Lysosomal storage diseases in the era of COVID-19: a report of an Egyptian case of alpha-fucosidosis and a summary of the lysosomal storage diseases-COVID-19 relationship.

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
Background: We present a case of alpha-fucosidosis, a lysosomal storage disorder, from Egypt. The report also includes a brief review of the COVID-19 and lysosomal storage diseases relationship. Case presentation: A female patient aged 18 years, diagnosed with type II fucosidosis, based on the cutaneous signs, characteristic facies, and systemic symptoms, and diagnosis was confirmed using genetic analysis. The patient died from COVID-19 pneumonia during the COVID-19 pandemic after getting the infection from her father and being hospitalized. Conclusions: Patients with lysosomal storage diseases with local or systemic immune suppression may be predisposed to respiratory complications of COVID-19. Intense care with protective guidelines should be applied to those patients.
