Lupus panniculitis as the initial presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus triggered by COVID-19 infection: case report and literature review.
Article in Oxford medical case reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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 has many complications that affect many systems, including rheumatology and inflammatory skin conditions such as cutaneous lupus erythematosus. Herein, we describe the case of a patient with lupus panniculitis who presented with systemic lupus erythematosus in the setting of recent COVID-19 infection. A 66-year-old female patient presented to the hospital with expanded skin lesions all over her limbs, fever, joint pain, and fatigue. Lab tests and imaging revealed a second recent infection with COVID-19, positive titers of systemic lupus erythematosus antibodies, and biopsy confirmed lupus erythematosus panniculitis. She was treated with oral prednisone and hydroxychloroquine for SLE and symptomatic management for recent COVID-19 infection without ICU admission. Lupus erythematosus panniculitis (LEP) is a rare manifestation of lupus erythematosus. Although some cases of SLE following COVID-19 infection have been reported, lupus panniculitis as the initial presentation of systemic lupus erythematosus in these patients is extremely rare.
