1 · What the graph read from 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.

2 · The registry

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

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is associated with long-term neuropsychiatric sequelae. We describe a 60-year-old male patient's history and symptom trajectory encompassing the development of behavioral symptoms and cognitive deficits following pneumonia and subsequent autoimmune encephalitis associated with COVID-19. We also describe changes in these facets with correlative changes in his immunological parameters after both acute intravenous immunoglobulin (IVIG) therapy and chronic periodic IVIG therapy every two weeks over the course of two years. ​​​​​​We review the literature on the treatment of long COVID-19 symptoms spanning cognitive and behavioral domains. In addition, we also elucidate current literature on the role of IVIG infusions for these symptoms using our patient's presentation and improvement in symptoms as an illustrative example.
