Pituitary Apoplexy With Transition to Acute Hypophysitis in a Patient With Sars-CoV-2 Pneumonia.
Article in JCEM case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
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 is a systemic disease associated with respiratory insufficiency, systemic inflammation, as well as coagulation, neurological, and endocrine disorders. Among them pituitary apoplexy (PA) as well as, more rarely, acute hypophysitis (AH) have been reported. In the present report, we described a case of PA in an 84-year-old man with SARS-CoV-2 pneumonia, with a previous unknown pituitary adenoma and a possible but not confirmed overlap with transitory AH. After reviewing the available literature, we discuss the potential clinical and pathophysiological relationship between PA and AH. Furthermore, we focus on the neuroradiological features of pituitary lesions in the presence of SARS-CoV-2 infection.
