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

introductionThe accurate incidence of different cardiovascular consequences of COVID-19 in the pediatric population has been inadequately defined due to ongoing genotype changes in the virus. Although COVID-19 is known to increase inflammatory markers associated with atrial arrhythmias, the contemporary literature has poorly described new onset arrhythmias as a complication in previously healthy neonates with COVID-19. CASE PRESENTATION: A twenty-day-old female term neonate, born by caesarean section with immediate cry, developed labored breathing, cyanosis, and tachycardia after having close contact with a confirmed case of COVID-19. The neonate developed atrial flutter, which was refractory to cardioversion and drugs, namely Amiodarone, Flecainide, and Propranolol. The authors treated the neonate with IVIG. This is the first reported case of atrial flutter in the neonatal period secondary to COVID-19.

conclusionSince the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, all attention and concerns have been mainly on respiratory manifestations and complications. The cardiovascular complications and treatment have been neglected. This case reports tachyarrhythmia (Atrial Flutter) as an unusual presentation of acute COVID-19 in the neonatal population and shows the role of IVIG in the treatment of refractory arrhythmias.
