Fulminant amoebic colitis co-infection in a patient with COVID-19.
Article in BMJ case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
A woman in her 80s who presented with sudden abdominal pain and bloody stool associated with fever, dry cough and malaise, was found to be COVID-19 RT-PCR positive with fulminating necrotising amoebic colitis. She underwent right extended hemicolectomy with ileostomy and survived despite an unpredictable post-operative course, the need for aggressive intensive care and other major risk factors, and was discharged home after the twentieth day of her presentation.This case summarises the survival of a geriatric patient diagnosed with two lethal complications - amoebic colitis and COVID-19 respiratory infection with the aid of prompt surgical intervention and appropriate critical care.
