Adult-onset asthma induced by COVID-19: A case report.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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 commonly presents respiratory symptoms that can linger after the acute phase. Asthma onset or exacerbations have been documented after viral infections although rarely in adults. We report a case of adult-onset asthma triggered by mildly symptomatic COVID-19 in a 24-year-old female without previous respiratory issues. Fatigue, exercise dyspnea, and intermittent cough persisting a month after the infection, led to spirometry testing, revealing reduced lung function, with normal CT imaging. Budesonide/formoterol therapy improved symptom control and repeated spirometry testing showed improving but reduced lung function after five months. Methacholine testing was thus conducted and confirmed bronchial hyperreactivity and adult-onset asthma. Clinicians should be attentive to persistent respiratory symptoms and suggest appropriate testing. Further research should focus on underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon.
