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

Angioedema is a condition characterized by non-pitting swelling of the subcutaneous or submucosal tissues in particular the face, lips, and oral cavity. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors are known to contribute to the development of angioedema by increasing the levels of bradykinin and its active metabolites. Infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is hypothesized to contribute to the development of angioedema by modifying ACE II levels and further increasing the level of bradykinin in patients taking ACE inhibitors. African Americans may be at particular risk of developing angioedema with concomitant SARS-CoV-2 infection and ACE inhibitor use. This case involves a 31-year-old African American male diagnosed with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) who developed angioedema while taking an ACE inhibitor.
