Linear Morphea in the Context of Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Infection: A Unique Dermatological Manifestation.
Article in Cureus, 2024. 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
Morphea, a rare skin disorder characterized by localized areas of thickened and sclerotic skin, typically presents as circumscribed plaques. The linear variant, however, manifests as linear bands of sclerosis affecting the extremities, and its association with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) has not been documented until now. In this article, we present the case of a 22-year-old previously healthy female patient who contracted COVID-19 complicated by an erythroedema on the back of the right hand, extending notably to the forearm on the 10th day of the infection. Skin biopsy revealed dermal and septal hypodermal fibrosis with a mild lymphocytic interstitial infiltrate in the dermis consistent with morphea. Treatment with low-dose corticosteroids was started, and regular follow-up was established. An isolated recurrence of cutaneous symptoms was observed after the first COVID-19 vaccination (Sputnik V) administered five months after the initial infection, with spontaneous regression in 10 days. This clinical evolution underscores the importance of a comprehensive understanding of dermatological manifestations in COVID-19, particularly in the context of post-infection vaccination.
